Canadian meat and bakery foods giant Maple Leaf Foods, Toronto, plans to build new meat processing plants and bakeries -- while it closes other facilities.
Canada's recent food poisoning crisis with processed meats now has been traced to mechanical areas deep within two meat slicers at Maple Leaf Foods' Bartor Road plant in Toronto.
Maple Leaf Foods announced its new business plan including the sale of its primary pork processing plant in Burlington, Ontario, and a five-year restructuring.
