Cabot Creamery is this month putting the finishing touches on a new distribution center here in its hometown.
That may not seem like big news, but Cabot and its Hanover, Mass.-based engineering and construction firm Food Tech Structures, have overcome a few hurdles since breaking ground in October 2003, most of them having to do with a severe winter, even by New England standards. Montpelier experienced single-digit and subzero weather throughout January and most of February 2004.
