The investment is the second for the Marshall facility in the last year. In September, Cargill added a production line for its ready-to-cook beef, pork and chicken items.
“We are thrilled to be expanding our food production capabilities at our case-ready meat processing plant in Marshall,” said Jody Horner, president of Cargill’s North American case-ready meat business based in Wichita, Kan. “This is an excellent example of public-private collaboration that generates the type of investment to expand business, add jobs and grow the state’s economy.”
