Abid John - Principal at RedLeaf Agri Junction

Abid John is a visionary, results-driven leader with over 7 years of experience in Canada's

agricultural sector, specializing in the supply, processing, and distribution of pulses and

specialty crops. His journey began at the grassroots level—working directly with growers

and managing procurement—giving him a hands-on understanding of the sector’s real-

world challenges and opportunities.

Rather than following a conventional corporate path, Abid immersed himself in every layer

of the agri-food supply chain. From local sourcing and quality assurance to logistics and

market development, he built deep, practical expertise. His knowledge of crop

characteristics, regional growing conditions, and buyer expectations has enabled him to

design systems that ensure quality, consistency, and supply reliability.

With a background in agricultural economics, Abid transitioned into executive leadership

roles, where he honed his strengths in operational efficiency, strategic sourcing, and

sustainable growth. As CEO of RedLeaf Agri Junction, he now leads a forward-thinking

enterprise committed to value-added processing and streamlined national distribution.

Under his leadership, RedLeaf has expanded its footprint across retail and institutional

markets, forming long-term partnerships with food processors, wholesalers, and

government agencies. Abid is also an active voice in industry development, contributing to

national policy discussions through the Canadian Agri-Food Processing Council (CAPC).

Known for his strategic mindset, ethical leadership, and collaborative approach, Abid

continues to position RedLeaf Agri Junction as a trusted and innovative partner in Canada's

agri-food supply chain.
