About Colorado Sweet Gold Industrial Park
Colorado Sweet Gold, LLC is a subsidiary of the A.L. Gilbert Company, a family owned and operated company since 1892. Located in California’s central valley, A.L. Gilbert provides feed to dairies throughout Central and Northern California and produces pet, planting seed, and farm animal feeds. In recent years A.L. Gilbert has diversified immensely, acquiring the bird seed manufacturer Volkman Seed Company (est. 1863), establishing almond orchards and vineyards, and providing various services within the oil & gas industry at A.L. Gilbert’s Colorado Sweet Gold, LLC Industrial Park in Johnstown, CO.
Colorado Sweet Gold (CSG) was established in 1999 and originally operated until 2005 as a corn wet milling facility. In 2007, CSG began operating as an industrial facility and leasing portions of the property - land, buildings, and equipment, and there are currently 7 businesses from various sectors operating on or from CSG Industrial Park.
Since 2012 CSG has serviced the oil & gas industry, taking advantage of our prime location in the heart of the dynamic Northern Colorado economic region where vast new oil and natural gas reserves are driving the local economy to unprecedented levels.
CSG Industrial Park totals 279 acres, 62 of which have recently been annexed into the town of Johnstown. In coordination with town officials and local planners, these 62 acres are in the process of being developed into new residential and commercial neighborhoods, with a focus on the needs and wants of the local community, easy access to the new city center and close proximity to the proposed nature trail connecting Johnstown to nearby Milliken.
The remaining 80% of the property is currently used for a variety of purposes, from supporting our vibrant oil industry via two crude oil transloading stations and miles of track to grain elevators, heated warehousing,
automatic water loading stations, water storage facilities, liquid storage tanks, small business operating centers, a certified scale, and more. In addition, over 50 acres are in production as irrigated farm land. The north east corner of our property also houses Johnstown's electrical sub-station, providing reliable cost effective energy to CSG and the town of Johnstown.
Part of CSG’s 21st century mission is to invest in appropriate uses of our facilities to provide core resources for our regional partners. CSG is a modern company with old school principals and an entrepreneurial spirit. We believe that to be successful we must be able to adapt to the current environment while constantly seeking new opportunities, always aiming to optimize efficiency while maximizing returns and doing so without compromising our core values or integrity.
