Shamrock Farms is investing $59 million into the project, which includes adding additional equipment, cold storage space and a new production filling line.
The facility will serve as the hub for Flora Food Group’s creams and cream cheeses products for the U.S., Canada and across the rest of the Americas region over time.
This initiative utilizes Ajinomoto Co.'s AjiPro-L, a lysine formulation which, in addition to aiding in the absorption of the amino acid, is cost-effective and a GHG reduction method in the market.
The project, which is being funded by the California Energy Commission, kicks off in September 2024 and is expected to span a two and a half year period.
