COLUMBUS – A California-based company plans to build a $103 million plant in southern Indiana that will produce dairy and plant-based beverages and create more than 100 jobs.
Ninth Avenue Foods announced Tuesday that the family owned company would build a 260,000-square-foot plant in Columbus that will become its first expansion outside of its home state.
The company, which specializes in extended shelf-life dairy and dairy alternative products, said the project will become its Midwest headquarters and create more than 100 jobs by late 2024.
The plant will produce dairy and plant-based beverages, helping give Ninth Avenue Foods a broader reach across the country, company officials said. The plant will have up to seven filling lines and also allow for the production of some products that do not require refrigeration.
