Brazillian-based biscuit firm Bauducco Foods has announced that the company has broken ground on a new production and distribution facility in the US state of Florida.
According to sources, the new 72-acre facility, involving an investment of $200 million, is located in Zephyrhills and will be developed in three stages. The first stage is expected to be finished by mid-2026 with 120 employees, whilst a second phase will be operational by 2028, and the final phase by 2030.
Stefano Mozzi, CEO of Bauducco USA, said: “We conducted an extensive analysis of over 160 potential sites across seven states, and Zephyrhills stood out as the ideal location. From the business-friendly environment to the fantastic support from the business development teams in the State, County, and the City, we knew Zephyrhills was the right place”.
The production and distribution facility will be able to process products such as biscuits, wafers and panettones, as well as allowing the company to broaden its portfolio with new products.
