About Us:
On July 9th, 2024, Maple Leaf Foods announced a plan to unlock significant value by separating into two independent public companies, each primed for growth and positioned to be a leader in its field. Maple Leaf Foods will continue to pursue its vision to be the most sustainable protein company on Earth, now as a more focused, brand-led consumer packaged goods company that will meet the world’s growing need for sustainably produced protein. By spinning off its pork business, the name of which will be announced in the coming months, Maple Leaf Foods will unlock significant growth potential by unleashing a world-leading organization which produces sustainable meat the right way and can fully take advantage of its own unique business model to unlock its own significant growth potential. The Maple Leaf pork business is already a leader in sustainably produced, premium quality, value-added pork products, is among North America’s largest producers of Raised Without Antibiotics (RWA) pork and is a key supplier of RWA and conventional pork products to customers in Canada, the U.S. and internationally. Canada Packers is well positioned to unlock the significant growth potential of its business by investing in both organic and inorganic opportunities, including increasing volumes, optimizing operations and efficiencies, and building on its industry-leading sales mix and margins.
