Food Processing
Becoming a part of Northumberland County´s growing food processing sector has its advantages. Lower costs are a major reason why the ratio of large to medium size firms is four times greater in Eastern Ontario (includes Northumberland County) than the rest of the province. Ontario produces more than 200 agricultural commodities and is a world leader in food technology research and development. Kraft General Foods Limited, Weetabix Canada Limited and Curtis Chicks Maple Lodge Farms are food processing companies that enjoy the dedicated, skilled labour; easy access to Highway 401; and exceptional quality of life that Northumberland County has to offer.
