Flour Milling in the US

The power of flour: Since flour mills provide goods that are considered diet staples, the industry will remain relevant in the years to come. Revenue and profit will depend on the price and production of wheat and rice, which are projected to be

more stable in the five years to 2017 than during the past five years, but will grow at lower rates. As companies vertically integrate and merge operations in order to take advantage of economies of scale, consolidation is also anticipated to continue.
