Viterra is replacing its grain elevator in Biggar, Sask. with a new state-of-the-art one.
“Viterra has a long history in the Biggar area, and we’re confident in its future as a key area of grain production in the province,” said Jeff Cockwill, the director of corporate affairs for Viterra. “We continuously evaluate our asset network and, through our analysis, determined that it was the right time to make a significant reinvestment in the area.”
The new facility will feature 34,000 metric tonnes of storage, a grain dryer and a loop track for more efficient unloading of producer trucks and loading of rail cars.
