At a meeting on March 26 of this year employees of Saputo Foods in the Village of Glenwood were informed that the facility, which employs 25 people and produces dried milk, would be closing a the end of 2015. In addition to the effect that closure would have on the employees, it was also expected to have a huge economic impact on the Village of Glenwood itself, as Saputo is by far the largest employer in the village.
That's all changed now.
From a November 6, 2014 Saputo press release: "During the second quarter, the Company reconsidered the previously announced closure of the Glenwood (Alberta) facility that had been planned for December 2015. The facility will continue its activities."
