More Than A Bakery, LLC, an extension of Indiana-based Richmond Baking Co., plans to build a $57.1 million facility in Versailles, KY. The 250,000- to 300,000-square-foot facility will employ 310 people and produce cookies, crackers and other items by contract for major food brands and retailers.
Construction is expected to start this summer and the facility is scheduled to be operational by the end of 2017. The facility will be built on more than 100 acres to allow for future expansion. More Than A Bakery will be Richmond Baking’s third world-class bakery and distribution operation.
“The company has needed this kind of additional space for some time now,” said Bill Quigg, president and member of the fourth generation of family ownership. “The Richmond plant is bursting at the seams and isn’t easily adapted for current production methods, and the Georgia facility has had 200 percent growth in two years. We want this new facility and our new employees to help us create a unique culture that will help everyone succeed both personally and professionally.”
