ST. LOUIS — Marson Foods will cut the ribbon on its new state-of-the-art baking facility in Hazelwood, marking a significant expansion in its production capabilities. The $35 million factory is now operational and features advanced technology and automated production lines.
The facility is a key part of the Hazelwood Tradeport, a development expected to bring many job opportunities to the local community, offering above-average salaries. This expansion by Marson Foods is set to significantly boost the company’s production capacity, with plans to double its waffle production to 2 million per week by the end of 2024.
Marson Foods, a waffle product manufacturer based in Carson City, Nevada, announced its expansion in Hazelwood in 2022. Hazelwood supported the project with a $400,000 forgivable loan and a ten-year tax abatement through Chapter 100 Bonds, anticipating long-term benefits for both the region and Marson Foods.
