Processor cans old displays for new color panel-mounts
Manufacturer of Margaret Holmes brand Southern-style canned fruits and vegetables, McCall Foods has tripled in size over the past five years, increasing from 75 million to more than 250 million pounds of produce per year. The company also recently acquired Columbus, OH-based Glory Foods and introduced a variety of new food products as a result.
The processor began implementing a new spice blending room and stainless steel (SS) renovation in late November 2010 and finished construction in April 2011. “One of the biggest challenges during this time was that the new building was built over our existing spice room,” recalls Jeff Crisp, McCall Farms maintenance manager. “During this major project, we literally changed the controls over in a weekend to keep the impact to production as minimal as possible.”
