After fire ADM facility continues production
Despite a fire erupting in one of its factories last week,
Archer Daniels Midland Co. (ADM), says that its Netherlands facility will be
fully operational by the end of next month.
“After having completed a preliminary assessment of the
incident’s impact on our production capabilities, we anticipate that the site
will be fully operational by the end of February,” says Sara Vermeulen, the
director of European Marketing and Communications for ADM
An explosion in one of the cocoa processing plants at Koog
aan de Zaan north of Amsterdam affected one production line.
“We are still assessing the impact on production [in that
area],” spokeswoman Elissa Igleheart told Reuters.
Other areas, however, were not involved in the incident and
are still operational.
“As the distribution center and warehouse were not affected,
we continue to ship finished products that have already been produced,” says
Vermeulen. “We are also exploring other production options through our network
of processing facilities in order to meet our customers’ needs.”
