In addition to reaffirming the manufacturing presence of its Business Unit Premier Tech Horticulture in New Brunswick, the opening of this installation will lead to the creation of 33 new jobs. This project is the result of a joint effort from Premier Tech’s teams in its equipment and horticulture sectors. Representing a total investment of close to CA$5M, it will allow the deployment of manufacturing and commercial strategies while increasing Premier Tech Horticulture’s sphagnum peat moss reserves in Eastern Canada.
Premier Tech Horticulture ranks among the North American leaders in production and distribution of value-added peat-based products for professional gardeners. Driven by a conscience to preserve the environment, Premier Tech Horticulture is an active player and leader in the Canadian and international movement towards responsible management of peatlands. The company operates 10 plants and 20 peat moss harvesting sites in Canada.
