Great West Beef & Bison Inc.
was established to build a federally- and EU-inspected slaughter and processing
plant in Swift Current,
Saskatchewan. The completed plant will have an annual capacity of
60,000 head and will process cull cows, bulls, white fat cows, bison,
dairy cattle and finished fats. It will also feature a fully automated
traceability system.
With completion of its start-up phase, the project will commence a
public share offering. As an initiative to add value to agriculture in
the province, plant ownership will, at a minimum, consist of 51 percent
ownership by farmers, ranchers and First Nations. |
