The Warden Project—Opportunity for the region and investors
Pacific Coast Canola delivers an exciting economic development opportunity to Eastern Washington with the construction of a state-of-the-art "canola seed to canola oil" facility in Warden, Washington. We've selected our technology partners and contractors with exacting standards for safety, quality of workmanship, and purity of the end product.
Designed by the world's leader in canola processing technology, Pacific Coast Canola's Warden plant will produce over 300,000,000 pounds of canola oil each year.
Full production is expected by late 2009. The Warden plant will crush 350,000 tons of canola seed annually.
Value-added co-products:
- Protein-rich canola meal: A preferred feed for dairy cattle, our meal will supply the growing dairy market in the Pacific Northwest.
Opportunities for the region:
- 33 additional, permanent local family-wage jobs
- Over $150 million annual opportunity for Washington farmers to provide canola seed
