$20 MILLION UPGRADES AT CARROLL’S COTTON GIN NEAR COMPLETION

An upgrade of Carroll’s Cotton Gin, is on track to finish for the harvest of May’s bumper crop.

The $20 million expansion will see the factory’s capacity double – to process 100,000 bales.

The upgrades have been undertaken, in step with a growing industry.

“We’ve seen cotton as a suitable alternative for a summer crop grow in this valley and our business has been running since 1995 so we’ve gone through this expansion to meet current demand.”
