Seprod is fully committed to growing through export and innovation and to do this we are engaged in a robust investment strategy throughout the business to ensure increased competitiveness, capacity, improved best practices and, ultimately, growth. In 2015 SEPROD committed to spending $J5B over the next two years. Investments to date include a new Tetra Pak line at Serge Island Dairy; a new oven at our biscuit factory (IBL); shade houses, a mix rationing machine and a complete irrigation system at Serge Island Farms; significant plant expansion at Jamaica Grain and Cereals Ltd.; a complete modernization of our cornmeal plant and investing in storage facilities at the wharf.
