Kerry has opened the doors to its newly upgraded food manufacturing facility in Georgia, Rome. The company invested €125 million to double the facility’s production capacity for ingredients like alternative proteins, as well as poultry and seafood. The upgrade represents the company’s “largest-ever capital expenditure investment and one of the biggest in Georgia’s history,” said Kerry in a press release.
The 316,000-sq-ft facility employs 250 people and features “world-leading food technologies and systems and has the highest standards of food safety.” As part of Kerry’s Beyond the Horizon sustainability goal, the facility uses 100% renewable electricity, zero waste to landfill, additional bulk storage to help reduce freight to the site, and local sourcing as much as possible.
