Having started 2018 with zero grain elevators in the Alberta market, G3 expects to soon have five in progress, reports the Alberta Farmer Express.
The Winnipeg-based grain handler plans to start construction by this summer on a pair of 42,000-tonne-capacity elevators near Stettler and Irricana, for completion the following year.
Last year, the company announced plans to build three Alberta elevators, at Morinville, Wetaskiwin and Carmangay. It is also constructing another elevator near Maidstone, SK, southeast of Lloydminster, and a new port terminal in North Vancouver.
G3 IS jointly owned by Bunge, Saudi Arabia’s state ag investment firm SALIC and Class B farmer-shareholders through the Farmers Equity Trust.
