ATCO Structures & Logistics (ATCO) has been awarded a contract to operate a 1,470 person camp for K+S Potash Canada GP in southern Saskatchewan.

The volume-based, multi-million dollar contract begins in April 2014.
ATCO's catering service will provide a six week rotating menu that will feature dining specials such as a full smorgasbord and summer barbeques. ATCO will also have responsibility for all cleaning and minor maintenance work, as well as operating a lounge and commissary that will provide convenience items for the workers.
