The acquisition is subject to typical closing conditions, including completion of due diligence.<\/p>\n<p>Based on early pre-engineering for the build-out of the plant, the estimated cost of the Project, including the acquisition cost, is approximately <span class=\"xn-money\">US$100 million<\/span>. Initial production at the plant is targeted to begin in the first half of 2022, and when fully operational it will employ approximately 115 people. If demand for tempeh continues as expected, the plant offers the flexibility for the Company to proceed with a second phase of the Project which could include doubling the capacity.<\/p>\n<p>Building additional capacity for tempeh products aligns with the Company&#8217;s goal of maintaining its market leadership position in this category and is consistent with its strategy to build capacity in support of the high-growth plant protein business through the effective deployment of capital. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Maple Leaf Foods has been purposeful in executing a multi-tiered strategy focused on capital efficiency. To date, we have found ways to leverage the capacity of our existing plant protein manufacturing assets, while successfully utilizing footprint in the rest of our network,&#8221; said <span class=\"xn-person\">Michael McCain<\/span>, President and CEO.\u00a0 &#8220;At this juncture, given the high demand for our tempeh products, this Project offers us the ability to deliver incremental capacity in a cost-effective, timely manner in a location that has synergies with our long-term vision.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In 2019, Maple Leaf Foods announced plans to build a new world-class plant protein facility in nearby <span class=\"xn-location\">Shelbyville, Indiana<\/span>, but development of that project has been delayed due to a number of factors including challenges created by the COVID-19 pandemic. By leveraging the opportunity to acquire an existing facility in <span class=\"xn-location\">Indianapolis<\/span> to fast-track tempeh production, the Company will be able to meet near term, growing demand for tempeh while allowing more time to develop its longer-term vision for Shelbyville.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\n        <b><br \/>\n          <u>About Maple Leaf Foods<br \/><\/u><br \/>\n        <\/b>Maple Leaf Foods is a producer of food products under leading brands including Maple Leaf<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>, Maple Leaf Prime<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>, Maple Leaf Natural Selections<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>, <span class=\"xn-location\">Schneider&#8217;s<\/span><sup>\u00ae<\/sup>, Schneiders<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>,\u00a0Country Naturals<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>, Mina<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>, Greenfield Natural Meat Co.<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>, Lightlife<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>, Field Roast Grain Meat Co.\u2122\u00a0and Swift<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>.
