Sanderson Farms to build new hatchery in Missouri, US
Sanderson Farms will construct a US$15 million hatchery near Howard Technology Solutions in Ellisville, Missouri, the United States, the company announced this month.
The facility will enable the company to produce more chicken.
"This hatchery will give us two things: It will give us added capacity that we'll need in order to support any future growth in Mississippi as well as give us additional square footage to utilise new technology that we have in our hatcheries," said Pic Billingsley, director of development and engineering at Sanderson Farms.
Once the construction of the new facility is completed, it will receive manpower coming Sanderson's Laurel site.
The company will break ground on the site within the next two months and expects to complete the project within a year.
