Aspire Food Group To Open Cricket Processing Facility In 2022

October 30, 2021: 12:00 AM EST
The Canadian cricket farmer announced plans to open a CAD$90 million (US$72.4 million), 100,000 square-foot automated cricket processing facility near London, Ont., in Q1/Q2 of next year. The processing plant will produce 10,000 tons of crickets a year in phase one. The company says that, before crickets can carve out a meaningful space in the alternative protein arena, costs need to be reduced and supplies of consistent, high-quality raw materials must go up. The new plant should go a long way to accomplishing those goals.
