Thanks to you, Amy’s has outgrown its current production facility and we
need to expand. With that in mind, we have been building a new production facility
up in Medford, Oregon. Medford is located just north of the California
border. Once the plant is complete, Amy’s will be able to meet the growing
demands of hungry stomachs everywhere. The photo above speaks for itself as to
how far the plant project has progressed. The installation of the building
footings is complete and the steel framing assembly is well under way. Behind
the scenes many people at Amy’s have been working on the new equipment
evaluations and selection, plant equipment layouts and logistics for moving people,
materials and finished goods into and out of our new facility. Orders are
being placed for refrigeration equipment, freezers, ovens, conveyors and many
other key pieces of plant equipment as well.
If weather continues to cooperate and construction and installation
plans continue to stay on track, Amy’s will begin making
pizza at the new Medford Plant in November 2006. Other
meals will follow in January 2007. Our corporate headquarters
as well as our two plants in Santa Rosa will continue to produce
the rest of delicious Amy’s meals.
Amy's Organic Chunky Tomato
Bisque Soup By Supermarket Guru
As
organic products continue to become more and more popular with today’s
American shopper, companies like Amy’s are keeping up with the
trend. Not only is this tasty soup USDA certified organic, but you also
notice that where soups tend to be high in sodium, this one contains
about half that of most brands. (Amy’s tomato soup contains 340mg
of sodium per serving, other supermarket brands can contain as much as
760mg per serving.)
