OM DETTA AVSNITT
In this episode, we’re talking about Canada’s Western Gateway, or CWG. CWG is the trade and logistics corridor at the heart of Canada’s agricultural supercluster, encompassing Highway 4 in the Lethbridge, Alberta area.
The gateway sees an annual economic output of more than 678 million dollars, supports more than 1,000 jobs, is traveled by more than 2,400 trucks per day, and is home to more than 700 transportation and logistics businesses.
Host Kelsey Hipkin is joined by Rylan Howard, Cluster Development Manager, Canada’s Western Gateway and Economic Development Lethbridge; Cody Fluet, Industry Development Coordinator with Canada’s Western Gateway and Economic Development Lethbridge; and AMTA Senior Advisor, Strategic Partnerships, Josh Hannaberry.
