TILLAMOOK, Ore.The Tillamook County Creamery Association (TCCA) will double the cheese production capacity at Columbia River Processing Inc., TCCA's Boardman, Ore. facility. TCCA's board of directors and management examined expansion alternatives in Tillamook and Boardman, and chose Boardman as least costly, the company said Monday.
"Our market is continuing to grow and so are our customers in the retail grocery business," said Jim McMullen, president and CEO of TCCA. Our customers expect us to grow with them in order to meet their needs. Expanding TCCA's cheese making capabilities insures that we can keep up with our customers' growing demands. It will also secure the future of the Tillamook brand."
