The pretzel maker has selected Logistics Park Kansas City in Edgerton, KS for a new manufacturing facility that will create 22 new jobs.
The company is investing USD15m in the new facility that will increase Dot’s production capacity to meet the increasing national demand for its signature snacks. The company plans to begin operations later this year.
“We are making significant investments in our technology at the new facility to keep the company on an aggressive growth trajectory,” said Randy Johnson, CEO of Dot’s Pretzels. “Not only will we be able to produce more pretzels but do so with greater consistency and ability to expand our product lines.”
Dot’s Pretzels purchased the 186,107-square-foot building in Edgerton as part of a deal with Copaken-Brooks. The new facility will be the largest manufacturing plant for Dot’s Pretzels.
“I’m happy to welcome Dot’s to Edgerton,” says Mayor Donald Roberts. “We look forward to having a great partnership for years to come.”
