Onstage, she's sparkly and glamorous, with a powerful voice befitting the title of her new album, Blown Away. At home in Nashville, the 29-year-old reveals a life full of healthy habits, puppy love and cozy QT.

1.15pm. Doing the weekly shopping, I stock up on stir-fry kits, Amy's meatless burgers, and armoloads of onions and garlic. I put onions and garlic in everything. Ack- as usual, I forgot my coupons. (Yes, I do clip them!)

Multiple Factors Lead to Delay of Amy’s Greenville, SC,  Plant Retrofit and Operations

Petaluma, California - Amy’s Kitchen,the nation's top-selling brand of natural and organic convenience foods,announced today that the company will delay the opening of a manufacturing facility in Greenville, South Carolina for a few years.

Earlier this year, Amy’s acquired the former Sara Lee plant.  Since then, Amy’s has been engaged in the complex process of developing an engineering and construction plan to retrofit the facility to meet its unique manufacturing needs. Current plans estimate at least an additional year of construction would be required to complete the project.

Concurrent with this planning stage, Amy’s sales and manufacturing capacity needs have rapidly grown, reaching a critical point.  A review of available remedies has resulted in the decision to reconfigure existing operations to more quickly provide the capacity to meet immediate needs.

“Right now, in order to keep pace and be fiscally responsible to all of our stakeholders, we are forced to take immediate action and use resources we have at hand for expanding our capacity. This means we urgently need to turn our attention to problem solving with existing and fully operational plants in Oregon and California,” said Mark Rudolph, Amy’s Kitchen’s CFO.

“We continue to be thankful to Governor Nikki Haley and all the individuals in local government who have been extremely welcoming and supportive of our work here. We are grateful to our loyal, hard-working, terrific teams of employees and consultants.” said Rudolph. “We’ll know more about how we will proceed in coming months and be better able to discuss our progress and plans at that time.”
