Pretzels, Inc. in Plymouth opened its doors to city and county officials and other dignitaries for the grand opening celebration of its operation at 2910 Commerce Street on Tuesday morning.
Congresswoman Jackie Walorski joined in cutting the ribbon at the 45,000 square foot facility that is the home to 40 full-time workers. It will welcome 65 total jobs by the year 2020.
The new plant manufactures bulk pretzel products as well as peanut butter-filled pretzels which are produced exclusively at the Plymouth plant. Production began just five months after construction began.
Pretzels, Inc. is the first new manufacturer to move into Plymouth in nine years.
This is the first grand opening of a Pretzels, Inc. facility since 1988. One other facility is in Bluffton, Indiana which includes the company’s headquarters.
The company hopes to expand operations at the Plymouth plant in the next two years.
