After closing its Ontario processing facility in 2014, Heinz will soon make ketchup in Canada once again. U.S. food conglomerate Kraft Heinz Co. announced in a news release Tuesday that starting next summer, it will produce 45 million kilograms of ketchup every year at a facility in Montreal. The ketchup will be bound for consumption in Canada and will create about 30 jobs at the Mont Royal facility in Montreal. Heinz ketchup sold in Canada used to be made at a processing facility in Leamington, Ont., southeast of Windsor, but the company divested the factory in 2014. "If they are coming back to Canada, I want to make sure they are all in," he said in an interview.
