Parrish and Heimbecker has received a $10 million loan from the federal Growing Forward 2 AgriInnovation Program to help build its $45 million new flour mill at Hamilton, Ont.
The plant, which is under construction, will be able to produce about 480 tonnes of flour a day and will employ 16 people.
The mill will have a traceability feature to help identify specific product batches in the event of a recall.
It is expected to open next spring at the city’s port, which is seeing a lot of agricultural investment, including a 50,000 tonne G3 terminal.
