Dr. Oetker Canada, the maker of Frozen pizza brands, dessert brands and dry baking products, has announced the official opening of the company's new frozen pizza production facility in London, Ontario.
The plant has been in operation since mid-March, and will serve as a production hub for the company's North American pizza operations.
Dr. Oetker Canada executive vice president Christian von Twickel said that the company is excited to have opened its first North American frozen pizza plant in London, Ontario.
" We are confident in the local workforce, the Ontario agri-food sector and the North American market and we are honoured to be part of the London community," Twickel added.
The London facility is involved in the production of the company's pizza lines, including Ristorante, a thin-crust gourmet pizza, Casa di Mama, its Italian homemade style pizza and Panebello, its bakery crust pizza.
Over the time, the facility will produce up to 50 million frozen pizzas annually for both the Canadian and US markets.
Dr. Oetker Canada, which has been in operation since 1960, has manufacturing and R&D facilities in Mississauga and now in London, Ontario.
