WELLS ANNOUNCES MAJOR EXPANSION
Wells Enterprises today announced a major expansion of their Dunkirk, New York facility. Chief Operating Officer Mark Meyer says this is part of a plan that has been in the works since the Dunkirk plant was acquired four years ago.
Meyer says the expansion will more than double the facility’s current production, and add 200 new jobs to the local workforce.
This will aid the company’s plans for growth in novelty and packaged ice cream, and enable future innovation. Construction on the new facility will begin in the fall of this year. Groundbreaking will take place in early 2024, and the project is expected to be operational in 2025.
