Cargill to double canola processing capacity in Saskatchewan
WINNIPEG, MANITOBA, CANADA - Cargill on Aug. 28 confirmed plans to build a second canola processing plant adjacent to
its existing operation in Clavet, Saskatchewan. The investment will
double oilseed processing capacity to 1.5 million tonnes annually.
"This investment reinforces our longstanding commitment to agriculture in Saskatchewan," said Ken Sauser, plant superintendent at
Cargill in Clavet. "Saskatchewan has over half of Western Canada's
canola acres, making Clavet an ideal location for the new facility."
Groundbreaking for the new facility will take place in the coming months with construction completed and production started by
November 2008.

Canadian canola will play a key role in that growth," noted Ken
Stone, Cargill's Canadian oilseed manager. "As our North American
and world customer base continues to grow for generic and specialty
canola oils, the canola producers of Western Canada become an even
more critical partner to us in serving our valued customers."
Cargill has a number of long-term agreements to supply major
food customers with canola oil, including specialty varieties valued
for being low in saturated fat and having zero transfat. The added
crush capacity is supported by strong demand for high oleic canola
oil in addition to growing demand for generic canola oils.
