PLAN IT builds the packaging lines behind Markham's food-manufacturing headquarters cluster. One of Canada's largest processors of primary and further-processed protein products runs its head office out of Markham, alongside a private-label granola, cereal, and whole-food bar manufacturer that has operated its own Markham plant since 1970. A frozen-dessert franchise company also runs its global headquarters from here, and a private-brands food supply-chain company founded more than a century ago is headquartered in Markham as well.
Protein processing calls for flow wrapping, checkweighing, and metal detection ahead of case erecting, all lines we build and integrate. The granola, cereal, and bar side of that same cluster runs on Mars Series VFFS bagging and EliteWeigh multihead weigh-filling, feeding the automatic case packers that get product onto pallets and out the door. A case study in our library follows a private-label producer ramping up output, a pattern that mirrors both sides of Markham's food cluster, and our food and beverage industry page details how we size flow-wrap and case-packing lines to a given plant. If you run a private-label line, the retailer sets the tolerance. We set the machine to hit it. Our solutions overview and the Ontario locations page cover how we work with meat processors and private-label food manufacturers near Markham, from a single machine to a fully integrated line.
