Lactalis Canada officially reopened its facility on Thursday, unveiling a new product line.
Officials unveiled six plant-based beverages called Enjoy! The beverages include oat, almond and hazelnut options with eight grams of protein per serving.
The former milk operation is now plant-based, with renovations completed at its 33,000-square-foot facility.
"It's very exciting, right?" said Sudbury MPP Jamie West.
"This is revitalizing the plant and ensures that we're going to keep jobs in Sudbury. It also gives the opportunity for us to shop locally and support local products."
West said plant-based options are growing in popularity.
"My son, for example, is vegan. And so, you know, his choice is plant-based products when it comes to having cereal or things like that," he said.
