Three things a company could act on this quarter.

06.2

The register

Each one lists what is in place, what is missing, and who makes the introduction.

If you want the feasibility work behind any of them, ask and we will send what exists.

  • 06.A

    Value-added protein processing

    What it is
    Further-processing capacity for regional protein, taking product a step past primary.
    Why now
    47 percent of Canada's live-pig exports leave Manitoba, largely as animals. The margin is added elsewhere.
    In place
    Feedstock, primary processors, specialised freight, workforce, and a federal protein supercluster funding this category.
    Needed
    Capital, an operator, and a wastewater solution.
    Suits
    Processors, co-packers, food-sector private equity.

    Introduction through our economic development team.

  • 06.B

    Applied protein research facility

    What it is
    A protein research and applied food science facility with a student and intern pipeline attached.
    Why now
    The feedstock, the processors and an RRC Polytech campus sit inside the same few kilometres, and the applied research sits elsewhere.
    In place
    Industry demand, campus proximity, and a board of operating companies willing to participate.
    Needed
    An institutional or corporate partner, and funding.
    Suits
    Research institutions, corporate research groups, funders.

  • 06.C

    Cold storage and cross-dock

    What it is
    Temperature-controlled storage and cross-dock capacity serving the region's processors and carriers.
    Why now
    Local capacity is thin relative to the processing volume within an hour.
    In place
    Freight volume, established carriers, an hour to a trimodal port and Foreign Trade Zone.
    Needed
    An operator and a site.
    Suits
    Cold chain operators, 3PLs, industrial developers.
