A food processing company is expanding its operations at a Saskatchewan facility.
Louis Dreyfus Company (LDC) is investing in its Yorkton, Sask. facility to double the plant’s canola crush capacity, the company announced on April 11.
The facility on 500 Sully Ave. opened in 2009 with a crush capacity of about 850,000 tonnes. It currently employs about 120 people.
Construction of a new canola crushing line is expected to begin sometime in 2023.
Upon completion, the facility will have an annual crush capacity of over 2 million metric tons.
