Richardson International Ltd., Winnipeg, today announced the expansion of Richardson Pioneer retail crop input network across Western Canada. Richardson plans to begin construction on the first three new crop inputs centres in Saskatchewan this fall and will be announcing additional new builds across the Prairies.
Richardson Pioneer’s newest crop inputs facilities will be located in Pasqua, near Moose Jaw; Elrose; and at Wakaw, Sask. While Pasqua and Elrose are brand new locations for Richardson Pioneer, the new crop inputs centre in Wakaw will replace Richardson Pioneer’s current facility at that location.
The three new crop inputs sites will each have high-speed fertilizer blending capabilities, modern offices and a 6,000-square-foot, AWSA-certified warehouse. Construction is expected to begin this fall with the intention to have all three new facilities fully operational by later 2017.
