US snack food manufacturer Lance Inc. says it has agreed to purchase a sugar wafer manufacturing plant from A&M Cookie Company Canada.


The plant is located in Cambridge, Ontario and will be owned and operated by Lance’s Canadian subsidiary, Tamming Foods Ltd, which currently operates sugar wafer manufacturing plants in Waterloo and Guelph, Ontario.


“We are pleased to add this plant to our Tamming Foods operations,” said Paul A. Stroup III, chairman, president and chief executive officer. “It provides additional capacity to support our growing sugar wafer sales.”
