The Grands Moulins of Palestine a subsidiary of the Palestine Jewish Colonization Association and one of the major flour mills in Israel, has embarked on a modernization and enlargement program.
The plant, one of the most modern in the country when it was set up in 1922, will now have a pneumatic conveyor system installed. In addition a silo capable of holding 3,000 tons of wheat will be constructed. Eventually it will be enlarged and will become one of the largest in the country. It is anticipated that the overhauled plant and the new silo will be ready early next year.
