Merit and Burcon will work with Nestl on what the parties are saying will be a long-term arrangement to tailor the functionality of the plant-based proteins that will be produced at Merit’s plant in Centreport for use by Nestl in meat and dairy alternatives.
Merit, which is investing more than $65 million in the 94,000-square-foot plant that is currently under construction, is 40 per cent owned by Burcon, a publicly traded Vancouver-based company that has been around for 19 years. Burcon has a 13-person research and development lab in Winnipeg and that is where a lot of the collaboration with Nestl will take place prior to the commissioning of the production plant.
No financial details of the arrangement were disclosed, but Johann Tergesen, the CEO of Burcon said the three-party collaboration involves paying Burcon to customize and tailor its proteins for specific applications into Nestle products everything from beverages to dairy and meat alternatives and then Merit will produce and supply the proteins to Nestl.
