BLOOMINGTON, MN — Miller Milling Co. broke ground on its Innovation and Technical Center in Saginaw, TX.
The center will be available to all customers and support Miller Milling’s five US mills and the two mills for its sister company, Rogers Foods.
“Adding the Innovation and Technical Center allows us to gather valuable data about our products and bring more proactive solutions to our customers, whether they purchase by the bag or in bulk,” said Kevin Sebby, VP of sales and marketing for Miller Milling.
The center will support testing and analysis of baking processes across various products and will include a small-scale mill and a full bakery. Customers will have the opportunity to gain expert guidance and product development insight to improve production.
“Being able to own these processes in-house lets us bring tangible benefits to both our mills and our customers,” Sebby said. “We’ll be able to have timely data for the mills and bring more support to our customers of all sizes, testing flours used and doing everything from troubleshooting to baking up a wide variety of products on site. One good example is the rise of products using the process of regenerative agriculture. If we’re introducing a flour or a product to a customer, we can bring them in, bake the products, and show results against a conventional product.”
Construction of the building is set to be completed later this year.
