With demand for portable grain handling equipment in Australia
and New Zealand growing, Ag Growth International Inc. (TSX: AFN)
(AGI) is expanding its manufacturing capacity at their India-based
AGI Bengaluru facilities to accommodate production of its flagship
AGI Westfield and AGI brands.
“This initiative will increase our manufacturing capabilities in
the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region and helps to lay the foundation for
ongoing growth,” said Paul Householder, AGI President and CEO. “The
successful completion of both the product transfer from our
Canadian facilities and the production ramp-up at our AGI Bengaluru
facilities ensures that no matter where in the world your AGI
equipment is made, you receive the same excellence in quality,
reliability and durability.”
AGI is the world-leader in portable grain handling with
swing-hopper augers and belt conveyors among its top-sellers. The
AGI Westfield STX2 and the AGI XTA truck augers will be the first
to roll off the lines at AGI Bengaluru. Engineered to withstand
tough field conditions, the STX2 and XTA are designed for
longevity, fast grain delivery, large capacity, and
maneuverability.
“Our augers have a long-standing tradition with grain farmers in
Australia and New Zealand dating back many decades to when the
Westfield brand was first introduced to the market,” commented
Rustom Mistry, Senior Vice President of the Asia Pacific region.
“For our dealers and growers, enabling more localized supply within
the APAC region means better service and shorter lead times. We
anticipate these changes to prompt further demand for AGI portable
grain handling products throughout the region in 2024 and
beyond.”
AGI Bengaluru is dedicating a 4,180 m2 (45,000 sq ft) production
space for portable grain handling equipment and features the latest
manufacturing technologies including laser cutters, robotic
welding, benders, formers, and advanced painting systems. It also
maintains ISO certifications 9001:2008 for quality management

systems.
