PRESS RELEASE / COMMUNIQUÉ DE PRESSE
Friday April 19, 2024
Wild Valley Farms of Croydon, Utah and the Canadian Co-operative Wool Growers Ltd. based out of Carleton Place, Ontario are excited to announce a collaboration to market Canadian wool as the revolutionary sheep wool...
Shearwell Data Livestock Systems has been a strong industry partner within the Canadian sheep industry. The company has worked hard to delay inevitable fee increases as long as they could and that is appreciated. In fact, it has been 14 years since Shearwell has been supplying the tags for the CSIP program and this is the first ever price increase to Canadian producers. The time has come however, that the price has to go up!
Accordingly, the Canadian Cooperative Wool Growers will be increasing the fee charged on CSIP tags as of July 1, 2023 at all retail locations. The single CSIP tags will retail 25 cents higher per tag while the combo tags (purebred pair tags) will increase by 30 cents/pair.
The pricing increase is entirely represented by the corresponding increases in tag costs, freight rates and domestic logistic costs thus ensuring that the CSIP tags are offered to producers across Canada at the leanest pricing...
The newest branch that has joined our team has moved to a bigger and better location to serve our growing customer base. We will be able to increase our range of products and to prominently display them in an attractive store environment.
We have moved a couple of kms away from 1530 18th St North to 660 Highland Avenue, just off the Trans Canada Hwy.
This building will give us lots of room to expand our product
selection in a bright and cheerful area.
Outside there are lots of parking spaces available for cars,
trucks, and trailers.
