Maple Leaf Foods to retain its rendering operations

摘要

Toronto-based Maple Leaf Foods Inc. announced that following the completion of a review of the role of its Rothsay rendering operations, the company has decided to retain the business in its entirety.rnIn October 2006, Maple Leaf announced a change in its strategy to focus on growth in its value-added meat, meals and bakery businesses. At that time, management indicated that the role of its rendering operations was under review. Management has since concluded that the business is an integral part of managing the disposition of byproducts from its remaining primary processing operations.
