G3 Canada has announced plans to build two new grain elevators, one in Swift Current, SK and one in Vermilion, AB.
G3 CEO Don Chapman says G3 has been steadily growing to serve some of the most productive grain-growing regions in Western Canada.
"We're happy to add Vermilion and Swift Current to our network and give farmers there a fast and efficient option for moving their grain to market."
The G3 Swift Current site is on a CP line and will be state of the art with a capacity of 42,000 tonnes, while the G3 Vermilion site on the CN line will have a capacity of 34,000 tonnes.
The grain terminals will also feature a loop track that will be able to load a 150-car unit train, and unload a Super-B truck in less than five minutes.
Pending regulatory approval construction will begin in 2020, with completion in 2021.
G3 currently has high-efficiency elevators under construction at Wetaskiwin, Morinville, Carmangay, Irricana and Stettler County, Alberta.
G3 also has a new grain export terminal under construction in North Vancouver, BC which is set to open in 2020.
