Great Lakes Cheese will invest $100 million to open its first Southeast manufacturing facility in Manchester, Tenn.

The new 330,000-square-foot manufacturing facility will be the company’s fourth “super plant” and its ninth facility nationwide.

“The decision to open another super plant is a measure of our commitment to delivering quality cheese products to our customers who count on Great Lakes for logistical efficiencies,” Vice President of Operations for Great Lakes Craig Filkouski said. “We believe that having strategically placed manufacturing facilities is essential to serving the evolving needs of our customers and to provide opportunities for future growth.”

The new facility also adds capacity for new customer acquisition in the southeastern United States.
