A Cambridge-based food processor is getting a federal investment of up to 3 million dollars to increase production and explore new export opportunities.
The money comes from the Federal Economic Development Agency for Southern Ontario to Grand River Foods Limited and is a repayable contribution.
It's expected to lead to the equivalent of up to 50 full-time jobs by next year and have spill-over benefits impacting local meat, packaging and ingredient suppliers.
Grand River Foods manufactures over 200 private label food products such as frozen burger patties, meatballs and chicken products which are sold across Canada.
