Trico project still a go as development costs approach $108 million

Rising construction prices and supply chain issues have driven up the development costs of the downtown plant, but still the project is moving forward.

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Rising construction prices and supply chain issues have driven up the development costs of the former Trico Products Corp. plant in downtown Buffalo by 32%.

But the project is moving forward, said Peter Krog, chairman and CEO of the Krog Group.
