West Fraser Concrete has a second operations in Prince Rupert at 141 Hast Road just off of Kaien Road.
Highbank has a 150,000 ton order with them.
A New player also moved in just recently at 420 Kaien Road, a private family owned business called Burnco Corporate, they are also in the cement business and are very large.
They will be setting up operations and are just about 1 minute away from West Fraser.
A little about them.....
BURNCO is a 102 years old, fourth generation aggregate construction materials business with over sixty locations in Alberta, British Columbia, Saskatchewan and Texas. A family business based in Calgary, BURNCO produces high quality aggregates, paving asphalt and ready mix concrete and also operates a network of retail landscape centres.
Burnco has also been in a buying spree lately.
To what I understand they have also made a visit to Highbanks Swamp Point Aggregate Operations.
