TWIN FALLS • It’s pretty easy to miss the small army of construction employees quietly working along Kimberly Road in southeast Twin Falls.
Over the past week, construction has begun on the new Chobani Greek yogurt production plant. The New York-based company announced almost a month ago it would build the multimillion-dollar plant, but ever since has been mum on the construction progress. Once finished, Chobani officials estimate they’ll hire 400 people to operate the facility.
Contractors working on the site declined to comment Monday on the project’s development. But, city staffers said many infrastructure details are still being finalized.
“The city is going to be a big part of getting Chobani operational by next summer,” said Melinda Anderson, Twin Falls economic development director. “We are still reviewing all the details on infrastructure needs, design and schedule.”
