BUSINESS NOTES
Tyson opens new bacon
plant in Kentucky
Tyson Foods Inc. commemorated the opening of its new $355-million bacon production
facility in Bowling Green, Ky. in late January. The 400,000-square-foot facility will create
about 450 jobs and produce 2 million lbs of bacon per week for the Wright Brand and
Jimmy Dean bacon brands. Production at the plant began in November 2023 and is
currently operating on two shifts.
" Our innovative new plant in Bowling Green reflects a major investment that we
are proud to make in southcentral Kentucky, " said Donnie King, president and chief
executive officer of Tyson Foods. " This enables us to focus on the health and safety of
our team members while also delivering best in class service for our customers. "
The new plant features advanced automation, including robots that help eliminate
ergonomically stressful tasks. After the ceremonial ribbon cutting at the bacon plant,
Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear commended the project and what the new facility
means for the state.
" The grand opening of Tyson Foods' cutting-edge facility marks a significant leap
in Kentucky's economic development and job creation efforts, " Beshear said. " This plant
embodies our vision for a flourishing Kentucky and symbolizes a new chapter of growth
and prosperity in our state, thanks to Tyson Foods' expansion. "
Sturgis Meats
secures
investment for
Standard Meat to build new facility
Standard Meat Co. plans to build a new protein processing plant in Fort Worth, Texas.
The 166,000-square-foot operation will occupy a renovated, historic 1955 meat processing
plant in Fort Worth's northside, close to the Standard Meat Co.'s headquarters in the Fort
Worth Stockyards. The plant will be the fifth processing facility run by the company.
In 2023, Standard Meat purchased the building for development and expects to install
a state-of-the-art sous vide line. With an expanded capacity at the new site, additional
sous vide lines will be available along with other production lines needed to explore
future technologies and address emerging opportunities.
