The Nashville Bun Company broke ground Wednesday morning on a $7 million expansion project.
President and CEO Cordia Harrington said the family-owned company plans to hire 100 new employees to manage energy efficient equipment imported from Holland that can make 2,000 biscuits a minute. The 25,000 square foot expansion is slated to begin production in June.
The company increased profits by 47 percent in 2009 and 14 percent in 2010 by adding new clients, including Kentucky Fried Chicken and Odom Tennessee Pride, which makes sausage biscuits, Harrington said.
