Rise Baking Company Announces Relocation of Innovation Center
Rise Baking Company announced on July 13 that they are relocating their Innovation Center in Tucker, Georgia, to Uptown Atlanta. The new hyper-accessible, 47-acre mixed-use site is located between Midtown and Buckhead.
The new space will be designed to better support the company’s evolving needs, says the company. Rise will continue operating its manufacturing facilities in Tucker and Douglasville.
Mark McNeil, CEO of Rise Baking Company, stated: “The current Innovation Center in Tucker has been an important part of our history, and we’re grateful for the foundation it provided, […] As we look ahead, this move allows us to evolve our environment in a way that better supports our people, our customers and how we work together. It’s an investment in building a true Commercial and Customer Center of Excellence that reflects who we are today and where we’re headed, not only in terms of our capabilities, but also in providing an environment where our people can connect, collaborate and thrive.”
The new center will have over 30.000 square feet of combined office and R&D space, bringing together Rise’s Atlanta-based shared services teams, including R&D, customer service, commercialization, operations, procurement and payroll into a single location.
Rise Baking Company is a North American bakery manufacturer headquartered in Minneapolis, MN that produces a variety of products for in-store bakeries and foodservice clients, including leading national grocery chains, convenience stores, QSRs, and mass merchandisers.
