The Province is welcoming Agropur dairy co-operative’s major expansion at its Bedford facility, located on Farmers Dairy Lane, off Hammonds Plains Rd. This investment will support dairy farmers in Nova Scotia and the other Maritime provinces and provide good-paying skilled-trade jobs during the construction phase.
“Nova Scotia is a great choice for Agropur’s expansion,” said Premier Tim Houston. “Agropur’s strong commitments to market diversification and growth align with our government’s plan to grow our economy and support the success of our people.”
With the expansion, the Bedford location will become a major dairy ingredient processing site and a strategic location for local dairy proteins to meet the growing national demand for protein-enriched products. The new facility, expected to open in 2028, will also include a new butter processing line.
Agropur employs more than 400 Nova Scotians at its plants in Bedford and Truro.
