WINNIPEG — Northstar Agri Industries will open its first Canadian delivery point in Winkler, Man., this fall.

The integrated canola processing company said its new 1,500 tonne high throughput facility will serve its crush plant in Hallock, Minnesota, as a point for canola receiving, storage and transloading.

“Canola growers in Manitoba are an increasingly important part of our business,” said company president Neil Juhnke.

“This new delivery point will enhance our ability to serve canola growers in southern Manitoba, supporting our expanded processing capacity to serve the growing U.S. market for canola products.”

The facility will feature a high-speed, 17,500 bushel per hour unloading system and serve as a delivery point for Northstar’s Star Growers Premium Priced Contracts.
