Raven Industries Applied Technology Headquarters will be located in Regina and dedicated to assembling, manufacturing and testing the Dot Power Platforms.
Raven's Autonomy Executive Director, Wade Robey says Canada has proved to be a critical region for Raven for over 25 years.
"This new location will allow us to expedite product development, as well as provide outstanding service and support to our customers and partners.”
The site at Emerald Park opens later this month and includes a 21,000 sq ft building for production and five acres for testing.
The new facility will be the central location for precision and autonomous agriculture innovation, training and service.
Robey says In the past 11 months, Raven Autonomy™ has grown in technology and partnerships.
"Through Dot, we have a long-standing relationship with the Canadian agriculture market and have seen interest in autonomous machinery that is unmatched."
Raven completed its acquisition of DOT Technology Corp., the Saskatchewan-based developer of the Dot® Power Platform, in June of 2020.
In addition to opening the facility near Regina, Raven is partnering with Economic Development Regina Inc. as a part of the Investment Partnership Program (IPP).
Through this program, Raven will provide resources to EDR’s Agriculture and Food Initiative to support Saskatchewan collaboration for agriculture throughout Western Canada.
