The City of Abbotsford is processing a rezoning text amendment to increase the maximum permitted floor area for an approved Farm Product Processing – Level 2 egg processing facility at 1481 Tracey Street, just east of Abbotsford International Airport, from 6,039 m² to 10,500 m². The expansion would add cooler/freezer capacity, an oven line with significant frozen storage, and additional product breaking, packing, and primary processing space, and would shift the use to a principal processing use with no on‑site agriculture. The co‑operative of 70 egg farmers (representing roughly 80% of BC egg production) has ALC approvals for fill and is already moving toward Building Permit issuance for Phase 1 (about 5,742 m²) while planning Phases 2 and 3.This is a strong pre‑RFP signal for design, construction, processing equipment, cold storage systems, material handling, automation, and utility/servicing work tied to a multi‑stage agri‑industrial buildout on ALR land proximate to the airport. Vendors can position for upcoming building permits, fit‑out contracts, and specialized systems as the City and proponents finalize zoning and capital phasing.

Site is within ALR and designated Agriculture 1 – Uplands, adjacent to airport and urban development boundary; Ministry of Agriculture and Food supports the facility given regional processing demand. Processing is considered a permitted farm use as over 50% of inputs are from the co‑op.
