“We really needed to find a great pulp mill”: Kruger celebrates purchase of Kamloops operation
KAMLOOPS — The new owners of the Kamloops pulp mill say the former Domtar operation fits perfectly into their future plans.
The mill’s acquisition by Montreal-based Kruger was finalized this week. Some of Kruger’s top brass were in Kamloops Wednesday (June 1) for a celebration ceremony to mark the occasion.
“We really needed to find a great pulp mill and we found one in the Kamloops facility,” Chief Financial Officer (CFO) David Angel told CFJC Today. “We’re incredibly happy to welcome our new 320 Kamloops colleagues in the Kruger group. This is a world class facility with a phenomenal track record in terms of performance, quality and employee safety — so we’re very proud to call Kamloops home from now on. We’re proud to become part of the Kamloops community.”
