Client Overview

West of Moree, P&J Harris & Sons operates a diverse, vertically integrated mixed farming business spanning cotton, grain, and a sheep and beef feedlot. The family-owned operation controls its cotton from planting through ginning, warehousing and export, processing through the 5-stand Lummus gin at Collymongle and exporting to global markets through Harris Cotton since 2017.

Managing cottonseed exiting the gin had become a bottleneck. Without adequate on-site storage, product would back up fast, putting pressure on harvest timing, gin throughput and the broader workflow of the operation. P&J Harris & Sons needed storage that could absorb the volume coming out of the gin and keep the wider business moving.

Key Outcomes

P&J Harris & Sons now operates with 24,000 tonnes of on-site cottonseed storage across two buildings, taking cottonseed straight from the gin into storage and eliminating the double handling that had constrained the operation. Five bale storage buildings hold lint on site through to export, and a dedicated chemical storage facility completes the gin site infrastructure. The capacity gives the business breathing room through peak periods and supports consistent product movement from harvest through to feed and export.

The gin site infrastructure sits alongside a broader portfolio of work Entegra has delivered for P&J Harris & Sons, including workshop facilities, hangarage, machinery storage and other additional structures.
