Purina leaders and community representatives gathered in Clinton, Iowa, to celebrate the completion of a $156 million expansion at the company's local factory. The project expands capacity and production capabilities for Purina's pet care brands and adds a technical training center. The expansion results in 96 new positions at the factory, which now employs approximately 570 people.
