Other features include 48 concrete storage silos with an overhead conveyor system for distributing commodities, a grain cleaning facility and a dust aspiration system that collects grain dust and converts some of it into a pelletized item to be sold to the local animal feed industry.
"Our Vancouver terminal is central to G3's vision of a coast-to-coast grain handling network that sets a new standard in efficiency," Karl Gerrand, G3 CEO, said in a release. "We plan to transform the movement of grain through the west coast, providing Canadian farmers with competitive pricing and reliable delivery opportunities."
Construction is scheduled to begin in March 2017 and wrap up in 2020.
