Owners Moshe Yitzhak and Nunzio Augello opened in the Toronto area about 20 years ago but have outgrown their North York space. It was announced last year they had purchased the former Sonoco paper plant by the Trent River in Glen Miller.

Moshe Yitzhak says work to convert the former paper mill began last September and production began in March.
A lot of work in a short amount of time was required to make the facility into what they needed but Yitzhak says it was important they begin production this year.

There are several reasons they chose Quinte West.
“We found a very warm welcoming from the city, from the economy development in the area. Everybody being amazingly helping and open mind and really helped us a lot to bring the company here.”

“We’re gonna build another extension to the building. We’re gonna almost double the facility and production. So by ’26 we’re looking at probably between 120 to 150.”

“They put together the system. It was a factory and then they created actually a community. They build a facility for the people to own and we do believe that that’s how it’s supposed to be. That’s much more than just being a factory. It’s a community, it’s people, it’s a whole big family.”
