On May 30, International Day of Potato, Peak of the Market Ltd. and the Keystone Potato Producers Association proudly recognize the dedication and hard work of Manitoba’s potato growers.

The Manitoba potato industry — from seed producers to those who grow the main crops — is scrambling to adjust to news that the companies they supply are slashing orders, leaving them facing potentially huge losses.

Peak of the Market Ltd. is proud to announce that David Guest has joined our team as Plant Manager. David is a performance driven professional with over 25 years of comprehensive management experience within food processing plant environments.

Manitoba’s potato sector is gearing up to supply an expanding industry but seed supplies will be tight after a tough harvest last season. A number of producers are planning capital upgrades to keep up with the rise in demand.

The Governments of Canada and Manitoba have invested more than $210,000 in a new vegetable research site near Winkler, focused on improving yields, developing new varieties and creating opportunities for potato, sweet potato and carrot growers.
