Mars Chocolate North America says it will invest an additional $100 million into its Topeka, KS site, breaking ground on a new state-of-the-art 90,000-square-foot facility that will create 70 new full-time jobs.
"For over a century, Mars has been committed to making our products in the markets where we sell them," said Tracey Massey, president, Mars Chocolate North America. "We are grateful for the warm welcome and continued support we have received from Topeka and the state of Kansas, and we are pleased to further invest in the community with additional job creation and economic development."
