About Our Services

Every day at Shop Online or In, we help customers in Airdrie transform raw paddy into polished rice. The operation starts with a thorough intake inspection. We check moisture content, check for foreign material, and discuss your desired outcome. Then the grain moves through a calibrated sequence of husking, paddy separation, whitening, and polishing. Our equipment is tuned for minimal breakage, which means higher yield and fewer wasted kernels.

We don't just run machines. We stay involved. After milling, we grade the rice by size and color, then pack it in food-grade bags with labels you can customize. For online orders, we ship directly to your door across Alberta. For local customers, in-store pickup is always an option. The whole process keeps you in control, from the moment you place your order until you cook the first batch.

Home cooks, small-acreage farmers, restaurant owners, and specialty food makers all work with us. They choose Shop Online or In because we return every bit of usable grain, offer flexible batch sizes, and never rush a job at the expense of quality. That care translates into rice that cooks evenly, stores well, and tastes the way it should.

Our Services

We offer a full suite of rice milling services that can be tailored to your specific needs. Whether you're processing your own harvest or ordering finished rice from our catalog, each step is handled with the same attention to detail.

Custom Rice Milling

Bring your own paddy and we'll mill it to order. This service covers cleaning, dehulling, and whitening to your preferred level. We run small and large batches, always calibrating equipment to minimize broken grains. You get back every pound of usable rice, ready for cooking or further processing.

Rice Polishing & Finishing

After milling, we can polish the rice to a smooth, glossy finish. Polishing removes the last bran layer and gives the grains a uniform appearance. It also extends shelf life by reducing oil content on the surface. Choose from light, medium, or high polish depending on your recipe and storage needs.

Packaging & Labeling

We package your finished rice in food-grade, moisture-resistant bags. You can add custom labels with your farm name, brand, or product details. This service is ideal for farmers selling direct to consumers, as well as restaurants and retailers who want a professional presentation.

Wholesale Rice Supply

Need milled rice without the harvest? Shop Online or In stocks a range of popular varieties, including long-grain, jasmine, basmati, and sushi rice. We sell in bulk quantities to restaurants, catering companies, and grocery stores in Airdrie and across Alberta. All rice is freshly milled and stored under controlled conditions.

Online Ordering & Local Delivery

You can order finished rice directly through our website. Choose your variety, weight, and packaging, then schedule delivery in Airdrie or nearby communities. We use a cold-chain-free logistics model that keeps rice dry and stable in transit, so it arrives in perfect condition.

Quality Assurance Testing

Before any batch leaves our facility, we run a series of tests: moisture level, grain uniformity, broken kernel percentage, and visual inspection. This step catches any issues early and guarantees that every bag meets our standards. We also provide a basic quality report for commercial clients.

Grain Cleaning & Hulling

For customers who want only the initial processing, we offer standalone cleaning and hulling. We remove stones, dust, and chaff, then separate the hull from the grain. You take the brown rice for your own milling or sale. It's a cost-effective way to add value to your harvest without the full processing line.

Benefits of Professional Rice Mill

Professional milling does more than just remove the husk. It protects the grain's integrity, improves taste, and boosts shelf life. When you choose a dedicated rice mill, you avoid the guesswork and waste that come with DIY methods. The result is rice that cooks evenly, absorbs sauces well, and holds its shape on the plate.

For commercial buyers, the advantages are even greater. Accurate grading and sorting mean consistent product that meets customer expectations every time. Efficient milling also reduces transportation weight by removing hulls, which lowers shipping costs. Over time, those savings add up.

• Higher yield: Precision equipment extracts more whole kernels from each batch, cutting waste.
• Better texture: Controlled polishing gives rice a smooth mouthfeel without making it sticky.
• Longer freshness: Proper milling removes oils that can turn rancid, extending storage life.
• Custom specifications: You choose the polish level, grain size, and packaging, so the product fits your exact use.
• Food safety: We follow strict cleaning protocols to keep the final product free of contaminants.
• Time savings: Outsourcing milling frees you up to focus on farming, cooking, or running your business.
• Market readiness: Labeled, packaged rice is ready for retail shelves or direct-to-consumer sales.
