MONTREAL — Hagen industries Ltd celebrated its 50-year anniversary with an $8 million investment in innovation to drive progress and further secure its position at the forefront of the industry.
“As we celebrate our 50th year of operation, it was an opportune time to make this commitment,” said Rolf Hagen Jr, chief executive officer of Hagen. “The manufacturing of specialty pet nutrition and value-added dog and cat treats right here in Quebec is so important to our family business, and this investment represents our confidence in our team, and the opportunities here in Canada and around the world.”
The investment, which will span over the next two years, entails incorporating automation, deployment of a new manufacturing execution software, transformation and packaging equipment.
“Our team is proud to contribute to Hagen's success and of the trust that the Hagen family has in us,” said Benoit Choquet, general manager of Hagen. “The new equipment will further strengthen our existing capacities and give our product development staff new opportunities to create best in class products for the pets all around the world.”
