Canada Packers brand name returns


 

Maple Leaf Foods is bringing back the Canada Packers brand for its premium meats that will be processed from animals and poultry that meet standards for environmental protection, animal welfare and food safety.


Canada Packers merged with Maple Leaf Mills to become Maple Leaf Foods in 1991.


Maple Leaf later bought J.M. Schneiders from Smithfield Foods in 2003.


“We’re not just celebrating our heritage, we’re leading the way for the future of pork and poultry production, both at home and globally,” Swinex quotes Michael McCain which it identified as chief executive officer.


Except he’s no longer ceo. It’s Curtis Frank.


And Dennis Organ will be ceo of Canada Packers.
