U.S. food company Kraft Heinz is committing $30 million to extend its new Davenport facility in the Eastern Iowa Industrial Center.
The highly automated 382,000-square foot facility produces millions of pounds of Oscar Mayer deli meat and other products.
With the expansion, Kraft Heinz is adding 20,000 square feet of inventory storage and 18,000 square feet of slice line capacity, to increase capacity for its Oscar Mayer deli shaved line.
The extension project is expected to be finalized and the plant operational by August.
