Jewett-Cameron Trading Company Ltd. (NASDAQ: JCTCF) announced the closure of its subsidiary, Jewett-Cameron Seed Company (JCSC), effective August 31, 2023. JCSC, which reported sales of $2,359,794 and a net loss of ($517,453) in fiscal 2022, faced challenges due to declining seed quality and demand as agricultural operations around Portland are displaced.

Immediate winding down of operations is underway, with processing of existing seed continuing until complete closure by year-end 2023. The facility includes 11.7 acres of land and 105,000 square feet of buildings in Hillsboro, Oregon. This decision will not impact other Jewett-Cameron operations located in North Plains.
