Nestlé Purina PetCare has announced a $550 million investment to build a new factory in Williamsburg Township, Ohio. This location will join the company’s network of 21 existing manufacturing locations across the U.S. and be its first new factory built from the ground up since 1975.
Purina says this expansion is part of a broader growth plan and marks the second new factory it has announced in 2020, after the company revealed plans in late September to convert a former brewery into a new pet food factory in Eden, N.C.
