The WC Mercantile is the first economic sector-focused initiative under the WC brand. The agriculture value-chain is very robust in Wheatland County from food production through to distribution and we are looking at the growth opportunities within the value-chain in processing, diversity in products and services within the sector.
The ultimate goals of the WC Mercantile are to network and showcase the agriculture value-chain within Wheatland County. Working together with stakeholders in the value chain, we can better communicate with the industry in the region to promote efficiencies, export readiness through the collective chain and market more efficiently as a sector group to targeted markets.
