Diageo, the company behind Crown Royal whisky, says it has signed an agreement to sell its bottling plant in southern Ontario. The facility is located in Amherstburg. In a statement, a company spokesperson says the agreement for the Amherstburg site has been signed, but Diageo will not share details about the buyer. The spokesperson says more information will be provided “when appropriate.”
The reports do not specify the purchase price, the buyer’s identity, or the expected timeline for completing the sale. They also do not describe any planned changes to operations at the plant following the agreement’s signing. The Global News and CityNews Toronto accounts both focus on Diageo’s confirmation that the agreement is in place while withholding buyer information. With no additional details included, the current public information centers on the signed sale agreement and Diageo’s decision not to release the buyer’s name at this stage.
