Koch Fertilizer Canada cut the ribbon on its new $33-million headquarters in Brandon May 4.
The facility, which was planned with office space for 100 employees, expands the company’s presence in the western Manitoba city, where it has operated facilities for the last 55 years, company executives said at the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
The company announced the project in 2019, saying at that time that it was part of $130 million in investments to the Brandon site that have been planned over five years.

The building was initially projected to open in late 2020.
