GREEN PLANT OF THE YEAR BIMBO BAKERIES USA ESCONDIDO, CALIF.

摘要

Bimbo Bakeries USA's Escondido, Calif., bakery is a model for sustainable excellence. It's earned a number of honors in its 29 years and now can add another one: Food Processing's 2020 Green Plant of the Year. The Escondido plant is sustainable in both an environmental sense and in the business sense, which should maintain its 170 jobs for years to come. "Sustainable initiatives, when done correctly, can contribute to the bottom line, as well as helping the community and helping the environment," says Kevin Yavari, environmental sustainability manager for BBU's west region.
