River City Fibre LP is a Partnership between the Simpcw Resource Group and Arrow Group of Companies (Arrow). The Partnership represents a significant investment in which the Simpcw First Nation is strengthening its involvement in the commercial development of natural resources harvested within Simpcw Territory. A significant portion of the logs chipped at the River City Fibre facility are harvested on Simpcw's traditional territory within the Secwepemc Nation. Simpcw Resources Group is a regular supplier of pulp logs to the plant.
The Arrow Group is a leader in transportation, logistics, environmental and forest residual management. Arrow made significant capital investment recently including upgrading the plant with a large chipper and upgrading the electrical system, plant control systems, and the plant in-and-out-feed conveyors. Arrow also partnered with Kruger to build an enclosed electric conveyor system to move wood chips from the facility to Kruger's chip yard, located directly across the street. The conveyor eliminates 40 to 50 truckloads every day and is estimated to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the operation by approximately 400 tonnes annually.
