One year on from the reopening of its plant-based beverage operations in Sudbury, Ontario, Lactalis Canada is shuttering the factory, exiting the plant-based beverage category, the company says.
In a report in Northern Ontario Business, the plant was previously a production and distribution centre for Lactalis fluid milk, which was shut down in 2022 for conversion to plant-based brand, Enjoy!. It reopened in April 2024 with C$1.4 million in governmental funding from the Northern Ontario Heritage Fund Corporation.
Around 25 jobs are expected to be lost with the closure in December 2025.
