Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Food & Beverage companies with facilities in the U.S. are sprinting toward the end of the year with a hefty load of capital spending plans. Industrial Info has identified $3.16 billion in capital expenditures that are scheduled to kick off from October through December of this year. Project spending plans include grassroot construction, plant expansions, equipment upgrades and additions. Investment values range from $500,000 to as high as $136 million for a total of 345 projects.

In contrast, project spending plans slated for kickoff during the same period last year were tied to 274 projects worth $3.56 billion. Of those, 208 projects are completed, and the remaining are still under construction. Moreover, construction starts for the third quarter of this year were 278 projects totaling $293 billion.

While projects are all in different timing stages, there are 167 projects in the planning phase with a total investment value of $1.16 billion, 156 projects that have been approved and are in the engineering phase totaling $1.82 billion, and 22 projects that are already in the construction phase worth $195.9 million.

Food & Beverage firms that plan to start construction on projects include Tyson Foods incorporated (NYSE:TSN) (Springdale, Arkansas), Blue Buffalo Pet Products Incorporated (NASDAQ:BUFF) (Wilton, Connecticut) and Frito-Lay North America Incorporated (Plano, Texas).

Looking at spending from a regional standpoint, most of the spending for the quarter is located in the Midwest and Southwest regions, with a total investment of $626 million and $627 million in projects in each region, respectively.
