Columbus Craft Meats expands Hayward based plant
The Hayward based plant received an additional 10,000 square feet which increases the company's salami production capacity by 30%.
The company begin construction at the site in February and has finalized the project earlier this month.
Columbus' last plant expansion was in early 2015, which boosted its production capacity by 50% and almost doubled the size of the Hayward facility. However, capacity was quickly filled as Columbus became the most widely distributed meat brand in delis across the United States.
"We are now the most broadly distributed deli meat brand in the United States and we're excited to see the tremendous growth in our business," says Columbus CEO, Joe Ennen. "This added capacity will assure that even more consumers coast-to-coast will be able to enjoy our premium salami. Further, our expansion not only allows us to meet demand but also to continue developing innovative new products."
Similar to 2015, this most recent expansion installed custom, Italian-made equipment to ensure the consistent quality customers have come to expect from Columbus Craft Meats.
