Fans of Newfoundland’s Five Brothers Cheese — and they are abundant — will be delighted to know that Five Brothers is on the verge of becoming (pardon the pun) a big cheese.

The Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency and the Business Development Bank of Canada have helped fund a six-figure expansion that will soon see the artisanal cheese company operating out of larger digs in the Goulds.

The 1,200-square-foot facility, located in a soon-to-be-renovated storage building near Bidgood’s Plaza, will enable Five Brothers to produce 10 times the amount of cheese the company currently produces.

In hard numbers that’s an increase of 900 pounds weekly, from 100 to 1,000 pounds.
