Danone’s USA footprint helps support domestic food production, local jobs and resilient supply chains nationwide.
Production will operate on a continuous three-shift, seven-day-a-week schedule, creating approximately 70 new jobs at the facility.
This will increase the creamery’s annual production capacity to 38,000 tonnes. The new US$33.23 million (€29 million) facility is scheduled to be commissioned by January 2028.
The distribution is expected to enhance milk quality, reduce post-harvest losses, and improve incomes for dairy farmers in the region.
The event was also attended by CECM Agriculture Damaris Kavoi, area MCA Daniel Musau and Chief Officer Japheth Kiminza among other officers.
