Tyson Foods has opened a new $300 million fully cooked food production facility in Danville, Va., to accelerate long-term growth. It is one of the company’s most automated plants to date. The 325,000-sq.-ft. facility represents an investment in the local community and will produce approximately four million pounds of fully cooked poultry products weekly.
Located in the Cane Creek Centre, a local business park owned by the City of Danville and Pittsylvania County, the facility has created nearly 400 new jobs for the southeastern Virginia region.
