McCain Foods USA expanding french fry capacity

摘要

McCain Foods USA Inc., a business unit of McCain Foods Ltd., is expanding its french fry processing plant in Othello, Wash. The $300 million investment will include a battered and conventional fry processing line that will double the plant's production. "This investment signals confidence in Washington, its potato growing community and its skilled workforce availability," said Jeff DeLapp, president of North America for McCain Foods. "It quickly follows other McCain capacity investments, helping to meet the continued increasing demand for McCain products and builds toward a strong, sustainable future in manufacturing and agriculture."
