G3 CEO Karl Gerrand took the stage this week at the Grain World Conference in Winnipeg.
He was part of a panel discussing the future of the Canadian grain industry.
Gerrand talked about the importance of building high-efficiency grain elevators.
"These facilities that we're building, we've got four in operation now and another two under construction, are capable of holding 134-car unit trains, loading those trains in under eight hours, and unloading Super B's from the growers and from commercial truckers at a rate of just under four to five minutes per truck. Those are the kind of efficiencies that we're seeing, where the industry's going."
He also talked about how G3's high-efficiency terminal, currently under construction in Vancouver, would be a game-changer for the industry.
