The management of Lion Foods has decided to rebuild the factory,which burnt down in St. Maartensdijk, in Kapelle. In the past two months, there were intense talks with the municipalities of Tholen and Kapelle regarding the rebuilding. Both municipalities have, in compliance with the possibilities, shown their full cooperation to achieve a quick and complete rebuilding.
The rebuilding can be realised the quickest in Kapelle, which was the most important reason in choosing this location. The new factory will be built on industrial site De Smokkelhoek, next to sister company TOP Taste. It’s expected that the first products will be supplied from the new factory at the end of July.
