Cargill invests in Mouscron facility in Belgium

With the rapid rise in consumer demand for premium, high quality Belgian chocolate, Cargill has invested in a new liquid chocolate production line in its Mouscron production facility in Belgium. This investment increases the worldwide active company’s capacity to produce milk and dark chocolate and creates up to ten new local jobs. Cargill currently employs approximately 150 people in production and related services in Mouscron.

Cargill’s cocoa and chocolate business will open the world-class production line in the last quarter of 2018. With an investment of EUR 12 m, the company will be able to further enhance and expand its chocolate capabilities. The investment is a response to growing customer demand for high quality chocolates tailor-made to individual customer specifications, demonstrating the company’s continued commitment to providing its customers with a secure and broad supply of bespoke cocoa and chocolate products.
