What happened
A Canadian pork and poultry producer inaugurated a new integrated processing plant in Trois-Rivières, marking a major expansion of its operations. The facility, which handles pork and poultry processing, slicing, and packaging, was funded with CAD 142 million and increased its annual production capacity to 50 million kg. The expansion involved increasing the site from 51,700 to 137,200 square feet and integrated advanced technologies, including automation, AI, and a new industrial battery system.
