Our Agribusiness Group
Agribusiness operations include hog production, rendering and biodiesel and are an integral part of our protein operations.
Rothsay is Canada’s largest recycler of animal by-products into value-added products including animal feeds, amino acid supplements and other industrial uses. The company manufactures biodiesel for domestic and international markets at its facility in Montreal, Quebec, the first Canadian plant dedicated to commercial biodiesel production. Biodiesel is a clean burning, biodegradable and renewable fuel made from a variety of recycled feedstocks including vegetable oils, animal fats and cooking oils.
Maple Leaf Agri-Farms’ hog production operations support the needs and specifications of Maple Leaf Food's fresh and further processed facilities.
