  1. Lake of the Woods Milling Company

    The Lake of the Woods Milling Company Limited was started May 21, 1887 to take advantage of the new railway and western grain production. Formed by a team from the board of Canadian Pacific Railway , including George Stephen, 1st Baron Mount Stephen , William Cornelius Van Horne and James Ross Canadian businessman James Ross , the headquarters were in Montreal , while the milling operations were based in Keewatin, Ontario . The location provided transportation via the CPR, access to raw product, and water power from the Winnipeg River . The first mill was completed in 1888 with vice president John Mather businessman John Mather overseeing construction. It had a capacity of 140,000 bushels and a daily production capacity of 800 barrels of flour. The flour was marketed under the name Five Roses Flour Five Roses , which became a world famous brand.
