Milling Company: Crown Flour Mills

Crown Flour Mills, more commonly known as CFM, initiated its operations in 1952 as a modest mill capable of milling 40 tons of wheat per day. The original machines were all branded "Robinson", the British top-of-the-line equipment at that time. Only a few changes occurred between then and the early 1990s. In 1991, after 25 years of government wheat import controls, flour subsidies, and direct bread controls, the Lebanese Government liberalized the imports of wheat and allowed the private mills to operate freely on the Lebanese Market. Since that point, Lebanon's Milling Industry went through a major restructuring and reinvestment period, and witnessed an increase of the number of mills operating in Lebanon, which reached today a total of thirteen. It was at that time that started the great march of Crown Flour Mills into Modernization, Automation, Quality Control, Sanitation, ISO and HACCP Certifications and into many other fields that contributed to the current standing of CFM.

 Since 1992 CFM has invested carefully and judiciously more than US$ 20 million in new machinery, building extension, a new silos storage for wheat storage and continuous employee training. The mill incorporates the latest in Employee Safety Concepts, Automation and Process Control. CFM has selected the best milling equipment from GBS Group spa, a first class Italian machinery producer. In order to ensure that CFM is continuously maintaining its excellent product quality and service, state-of-the-art technologies, based on a well balanced scheme combining creativity and innovation, were the backbone of the mill-reengineering project. All this makes CFM one of the most modern and competitive mills in the Middle East.

Summary of Role and Services:

Diversified Milling Lines - CFM has three milling lines:

  1. Semi Hard Wheat Milling Line to produce flour for Lebanese bread and the traditional oregano pizza (manou'che);
  2. Durum Milling Line to produce different kinds of semolina for pasta and Lebanese sweets;
  3. Specialty Milling Line that has been specifically designed to produce a high quality flour.

Significant Fact Sheet

Today CFM grinds an average of 10,000 mt of wheat every month. The mill operates 6 days a week, 24 hours a day. CFM has regular stops for housekeeping and maintenance. With a maximum milling capacity of 15,000 mt per month, CFM has a capability utilization of 70% capacity. CFM sells more than 20 different products on the local market to customers all over Lebanon. In 1952 the mill was located outside the city limits; today as Beirut expanded it is situated in a prime location, conveniently at a three kilometers distance from the port. Because of the limited land available, CFM was able to make very efficient use of space.
