Mother Parkers Tea & Coffee has opened its new Complete Extract Solutions facility in Mississauga, Ontario, as it expands into coffee extract solutions and targets the growing cold coffee market.

The facility brings together coffee sourcing, roasting, extraction, aseptic processing, packaging and commercial-scale manufacturing into a single platform. It has been purpose-built for the production of liquid coffee extracts, giving the company a dedicated site for a product category that requires coordinated processing and packaging capabilities.

Danielle Barran, CEO of Mother Parkers, said the move will support the production of more cold coffee products.

“Complete Extract Solutions is an important milestone in the continued evolution of Mother Parkers and a result of our multi-year, multi-million-dollar strategic investment plan to build a strategic coffee extract platform,” she said.

“We are investing in innovation as customers need practical, scalable ways to bring cold coffee and coffee extract solutions to market with consistency, quality and operational simplicity.”

Since 2024, cold coffee servings in Canadian quick service restaurants have accounted for about a quarter of all coffee servings. Among 18- to 24-year-olds, more than half of all coffee servings were cold, according to Circana’s CREST data.

The trend is expected to continue, according to Technomic’s Away-From-Home Beverage 2026 update of the Category Sales and Volumetric Report, which forecasts a 6.2% growth rate in total cold coffee consumption from 2025 to 2030.

For foodservice and manufacturing customers, that makes extract infrastructure more relevant as brands look for ways to deliver cold coffee formats at scale without building every step of the process themselves.

Ontario Minister of Agriculture, Food and Agribusiness Trevor Jones said: “The opening of this new facility reinforces Ontario’s position as Canada’s leading food and beverage manufacturing jurisdiction.”
