 $2 Million Upgrade Triples Facility Speed

 

Snobelen Farms Ltd. has unveiled a comprehensive upgrade to its grain handling facility in Brantford.

The $2 million investment focuses on state-of-the-art equipment and technological advancements to better serve local agricultural producers.

The cornerstone of this upgrade is a new commercial receiving pit, along with a drag and elevator system capable of handling 16,000 bushels per hour—more than double the previous capacity.

"Snobelen Farms is dedicated to serving our growers with the highest level of service. These upgrades reflect our ongoing commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction," says Troy Tate, location manager at the Brantford facility.

This system only replaces older equipment but also integrates seamlessly with the facility's existing automation, promoting a smoother and more efficient grain processing operation.

The installation of new downspouts and the expansion of wet grain storage capabilities, allowing the facility to operate at full capacity without delays.

“We want our growers to be in, out and back in their combines as seamlessly as possible,” says Tate.

These technological upgrades translate into tangible benefits for Snobelen Farms' clientele. Growers can now expect significantly reduced wait times and greater scheduling flexibility, accommodating a range of delivery timelines and needs.

This investment reflects Snobelen Farms' commitment to its growers and the broader agricultural community in Brantford.
