Renovation is complete and the facility is now operat-ing as a food production center for small and emerg-ing food businesses. The $500,000 in Choice Neigh-borhoods funds leveraged an additional $13.5 million in public and private funds. The facility will support more than 50 food production businesses and create 150 jobs within its first five years of operation.
