The move enhances the company’s overall strength as a flour miller and will accelerate the speed of business growth in the U.S. by leveraging synergies the company’s existing entities; NIPPN California Inc., a California-based premix sales company, and Pasta Montana LLC, a-Montana-based pasta production and sales company.
