Daily’s Premium Meats, a meat processing company specializing in “sliced-to-order” naturally smoked bacon, held its grand opening ceremony on Sept. 9. Daily’s expects to hire 212 employees during its first five years of operations.
The company announced the building of its 100,000 square foot facility, which is built to add more production capabilities and more employees in the future, in March of 2015.
Kelly Hattan, Daily’s President, and R. Patt Lilly, St. Joseph Chamber of Commerce President, spoke at the event. Lilly discussed the revitalization of the Stockyards, which started with Triumph Foods and includes numerous additions and expansions of additional companies, Daily’s included.
Those who attended saw a virtual tour of the plant and how bacon is made via video.
