Lantmännen signed an agreement for the acquisition of an oat mill and oat ingredients manufacturing facility in Kimstad, Norrköping, just over a week ago. The transaction between Lantmännen and the british company Tate & Lyle has now been done and the acquisition is completed.
The acquisition gives Lantmännen access to an oat mill with a capacity of 55,000 tons, that complements the existing production capacity within heat-treated oats. It also offers Lantmännen the opportunity to further invest in the processing of oats and to develop and produce ingredients with oats as the raw material. The facility manufactures oat protein that is sold under the PrOatein brand, beta glucan under the PromOat and AvenaCare brands, as well as oat flour.
Around 35 people are employed at the facility in Kimstad and Lantmännen welcomes the new employees that transferred to Lantmännen on March 29.
