PCL to Build New Co-op Fertilizer Terminal in Taber

The PCL family of companies is pleased to announce its Calgary district has been chosen as the preferred builder of a very significant fertilizer project for Federated Co-operatives Limited (FCL). The fertilizer terminal will be built near Grassy Lake, Alberta. 

“We are excited to be partnering with FCL on this fertilizer terminal project,” said Rob Duerksen, PCL Agribusiness Manager Canada. “Our expertise in this specialized type of construction will help continue our consistent, high-quality project delivery, on-time and on-budget.”

When completed, the new state-of-the-art, high throughput fertilizer terminal will be able to accommodate up to a 110-car unit train to receive product from domestic and international suppliers.

Construction is scheduled to begin in the spring of 2019. The terminal is expected to be fully operational for the summer of 2020. The project is expected to create about 150 jobs during the construction phase.

PCL will be partnering with many local subtrades and suppliers, and a significant percentage of labour will be sourced locally.

PCL has more than $5 billion of completed projects in our farm-to-plate portfolio, demonstrating a solid track record in the agribusiness and food services market. We are a customer-focused, fully integrated one-stop service provider.
