Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--According to Industrial Info's Global Market Intelligence (GMI) Project Database, Texas leads the U.S. in both the value and number of active Food & Beverage Industry projects. The warehousing and distribution sector leads by value, followed by the dairy sector. Industrial Info is tracking more than $7.8 billion worth of active food and beverage projects in the state.
One of the largest Food & Beverage projects in Texas is the construction of a grassroot cheese production plant in Lubbock. Construction on Leprino Foods Company's (Denver, Colorado) new facility kicked off last summer, and the first phase of the project is expected to be completed in late 2024. The 850,000-square-foot facility will be home to the latest state-of-the-art technology and environmentally friendly features, such as water capture and reuse throughout the facility, according to a company press release. The plant will produce mozzarella cheese and dairy ingredients from approximately 8 million pounds of milk per day.
But Leprino may not stop there. A Phase II expansion is in the early planning stages and could begin construction in early 2025. Subscribers to Industrial Info's GMI Food & Beverage Project Database can click here for the report on Phase I and here for Phase II.
