B.C. owned and operated, Fibreco Export Inc. has successfully served the western Canadian forest industry by moving wood chips and wood pellets to customers throughout the world for almost 40 years. In order to provide longer term sustainability and full terminal utilization, an upgrade to the facility is proposed to allow product diversification to include handling food ingredients for the international agricultural trade (grain and lentils). Fibreco has requested development permit approval from the District of North Vancouver and project permit approval from the Vancouver Fraser Port Authority for the Fibreco Terminal Enhancement Project.
