Olymel is spending $8.1 million to upgrade its sausage plant in Quebec. The investment will double the footprint of the plant at La Fernandière to 45,000 sq. feet, the company said.
Production should grow to almost 20 million kilograms from 14 million.
The work will reconfigure four current production lines and add a fifth as well as expand storage space. The plant will also resume making meatloaf.
It is also spending $2 million on its Red Deer plant to make sausages.
