Barry Callebaut AG, whose clients include Nestle SA and Mars Inc., plans to increase factory capacity in the region by 15% in the next 18 to 20 months, said Steve Woolley, the company’s president for the Americas. A new facility in Canada will account for half of that, with the rest coming from expansion of existing plants.
“We’ve kind of hit a wall on the capacity that we have in our network, and because of the growth we’re seeing, we’re very bullish on the future,” Woolley said in an interview at the company’s regional headquarters in Chicago. “We’re seeing a big increase in ice cream, so we wanna make sure that we invest behind that as well.”
The Brantford factory will produce 50,000 metric tons of sugar-free chocolate in a bid to meet demand from health-conscious consumers. The other 50,000 tons of expansion will come from existing facilities in the region, which include five plants in the US and two in Mexico. The additional output will be focused on compound chocolate, which uses less cocoa and is key to making things like ice cream and donut coatings.
