Amy’s Kitchen is investing US$95m in the facility, which will employ almost 700 people.
Andy Berliner, the owner of Amy’s Kitchen, stressed the site was in the “perfect spot” to supply the group’s “largest customers”.
He added: “The potential to source so many of our agricultural ingredients close to the plant was another important factor in our decision.”
Family-run Amy’s Kitchen makes more than 250 organic products, including frozen entrees, pizza, burritos, wraps, soups, beans, salsa and pasta sauce. The group also prosuces cakes, cookies and candy bars.
