The Flour Milling industry in Canada has experienced strong growth over the five years to 2023 amid a surge in demand for Canadian flour milling products in 2022 and 2023. The industry includes operators that produce flour products from milling grains, rice millers, and malt manufacturers. Flour is the largest product segment, and heightened demand for Canadian flour has buoyed industry growth.

Overall, industry revenue is expected to expand an annualized 11.4% to $4.7 billion over the five years to 2023. Revenue is forecast to grow 24.2% in 2023 alone as increased demand for gluten-free and specialty flours and the war in Ukraine have all boosted demand for Canadian products.

Industry operators purchase grain inputs such as wheat, corn, barley and rice from wholesalers or directly from growers.
