The company is investing more than US$124m in a 650,000-square-foot processing and packaging plant in Florida, N.Y., moving its headquarters there from St. Louis, Missouri.


The move replaces a 100-year-old facility that suffered extensive flood damage last summer, prompting the decision to construct a modernised plant.


The company, which entered the baby foods market in 1931 and was the first to remove added salt from their products, will keep and relocate 356 jobs in Missouri, and create 135 new jobs in New York.
