Multifoods expands dry bakery mix footprint in Elyria plant
International Multifoods, based in Elyria and Minneapolis, boosts dry bakery mix production at the 50,000 square foot former Muller Foods site. Plant runs 150,000 lb daily for 12 large customers, with 30 staff rising to 40 by year end. The move, part of a 1984 upgrade, aims to capitalize on away from home eating trends and dominant positions in Venezuela and Canada through Molinos Nacionales and Robin Hood subsidiaries.
