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. PCC has chosen its 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, PCC's Warden plant will produce over 300,000,000 pounds of canola oil each year. That oil will be food grade quality but also available for renewable fuel production.
Construction start is expected in 2010. The Warden plant will crush over 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:
- 35-40 additional, permanent local family-wage jobs
- Over $150 million annual opportunity for Pacific Northwest farmers to provide canola seed
