Richardson International Ltd. is buying three pasta-making plants in the United States from Food and Provisions Inc.
The three are in North Dakota, Minnesota and Virginia.
Richardson president and chief executive officer Darwin Sobkow said “it will allow the company to further integrate a core strength of the business: durum wheat.”
Hartley Richardson’s son Thor was appointed president in early August, setting up the eighth-generation family member as the likeliest successor when his father, who had held the post since 1993, retires.
