As a leader in the flour milling industry, Ardent Mills, formerly Horizon Milling, was formed as a joint venture uniting the milling expertise of Cargill, Inc., and CHS. They invested in its Saginaw flour milling facility, the largest flour mill in Texas, to enhance its milling efficiencies and capabilities. This project expanded flour storage space by 8,000 cwts, increased temper storage by 10,000 bushels, and added an additional storage bin for wheat midds.
