The project also includes one of the largest ultra-cold storage facilities and pelletizing production rooms in the United States. The planned expansion will increase the surface of the Madison manufacturing site by nearly a third with a new shipping area, offices, maintenance shop and storage and pelletizing area.

The new facilities are expected to be completed by August 2010.
