No financial terms were released; however, SunOpta Inc announced last month that it would receive $6.2 million for the divestiture of the company. The acquisition by Speyside represented the conclusion of a strategic review process conducted by Opta Minerals and its shareholders, SunOpta said. Speyside said it will focus on completing the Waterdown, Ont.-based company's turnaround.
