P&H will construct a third flour mill and expand facilities at its Hamilton, Ont., site, it announced today.
“We are not just expanding our infrastructure; we are investing in the future of Canadian agriculture and the baking industry,” CEO John Heimbecker said in news release.
P&H Milling Group and Winnipeg-based grain handler Parrish & Heimbecker, Limited (P&H) said the expansion comes in response to “ever-growing demands” from the baking industry.
Along with a third flour mill, which is scheduled to begin construction in March, the company will add two storage silos which it said would would handle feed ingredients like soymeal, distillers dried grains, and wheat for the mills.
The existing P&H Hamilton flour mill opened in 2017, and construction began on a second mill in 2019, which opened in 2020. This doubled its capacity, the news release said.
Further expansion “reaffirms our dedication to meeting the needs of both our valued agricultural partners and our business partners,” Heimbecker said.
