REGINA — The receiver is looking for potential buyers of Leon Mfg. Co. Inc. in Yorkton, Sask.
The company, along with Ram Industries Inc., was placed in receivership June 11 after numerous financial difficulties were reported and the company missed payments to BMO. It owes BMO more than $16.6 million.
Ernst & Young on July 2 posted that it is accepting offers to purchase Leon’s physical assets, or proposals to liquidate the assets, until July 31.

Leon was in business for more than 70 years.
