On Tuesday, leading global beef producer JBS USA announced its plans to invest $50 million into an expansion project in Greeley, Colo.
The company said the project, which will begin in 2025, will include a new state-of-the-art distribution center at the Greeley beef production facility.
”A new distribution center at our Greeley beef plant, one of the most important beef production facilities in the country, ensures we are well positioned for continued growth and to help meet the demand for high-quality U.S. beef,” said Wesley Batista Filho, JBS USA CEO. “Our ongoing investments in U.S. agriculture show our optimism about the future, and projects like these benefit farmers and ranchers, consumers, our team members and the communities where we operate.”
