Murad Al-Katib, M.S.C.
White City, Saskatchewan

Murad Al-Katib has built AGT Food and Ingredients into one of the largest suppliers in the world of pulses, like lentils, chickpeas and beans, and has helped to develop this agricultural sector in Saskatchewan. Thanks to his business acumen and leadership, more prairie farmers have incorporated the soil-enriching crops into their rotations and Canada has become a leading exporter of these protein-rich, affordable and sustainable food staples.
