Ag-Value Added Processing
Home to national and regional headquarters of some of Canada's leading agricultural processors
Moose Jaw’s primary and utilities industry has been on a roll. The sector posted output growth of 3.6 per cent in 2017 and 2.6 per cent in 2018, thanks in part to the area’s position as a dominant international player in pulse crop production. We expect more of the same as appetite for plant protein continues to increase worldwide. We forecast the industry will post output growth of 2.4 per cent this year.
The positive agricultural outlook will support Moose Jaw’s crop-processing operations, which are central to the local manufacturing industry. Firms like Simpson Seeds and Agrocorp Processing are expected to remain key industry players and big exporters. Both firms have expanded their Moose Jaw operations in recent years.
Outside of the agricultural value chain, potash extraction and processing are also contributing to Moose Jaw’s economy. Even though most mines and processing facilities are not in Moose Jaw, they employ Moose Jaw residents. Overall, local manufacturing industry output will expand by 2.6 per cent this year and by 2.4 per cent in 2020.
