QUÉBEC CITY, QC, Feb. 26, 2026 – During its annual general meeting today, Sollio Cooperative Group (SCG) unveiled strong financial outcomes that underscore its operational rigor and the effectiveness of its cooperative framework.
For the fiscal period ending October 25, 2025, SCG reported consolidated sales totaling $8.4 billion. The organization achieved an adjusted EBITDA of $562.3 million and earnings before patronage refunds and income taxes of $211.9 million, up from $129.5 million the previous year. These figures highlight the group’s operational vitality and the disciplined approach taken across the company.
“The 2024–2025 fiscal results for Sollio Cooperative Group demonstrate our financial robustness and the viability of our cooperative model,” stated Richard Ferland, Chairman of the Board. “This success allows us to fulfill our core mission of generating value and returning it to our members in a meaningful way.”

Substantial returns: $75 million for members
Sollio Cooperative Group has announced a total distribution of $75 million to its cooperative network members this year. This includes $32.1 million in patronage dividends, $5.6 million in dividends for the Cooperative Pork Network, and $35 million in share redemptions, serving as clear evidence of the value created for the network.
Performance by division
Sollio Food (Olymel) achieved sales of nearly $4.9 billion, marking one of its strongest years to date. These results were bolstered by favorable conditions in the hog and poultry markets, as well as internal optimization and performance initiatives, despite a complex operating landscape.
Sollio Agriculture saw a record-breaking year, with sales reaching $2.56 billion and a significant increase in earnings before patronage refunds and income taxes. This growth was driven by strong results in the Livestock and Crop Production sectors, alongside improved operational efficiency across its Canadian networks.
Sollio Retail (BMR) reported sales of $968.2 million and an increase in earnings. This performance, which exceeded expectations, was driven by strict management practices, the addition of new dealers, and the launch of key projects, even as consumer spending remained cautious.
Supported by a solid financial base, effective governance, and dedicated teams, Sollio Cooperative Group is moving forward with confidence, continuing to generate sustainable value for its cooperatives and their local communities.
