Armada Nutrition Expands Production Facility In Spring Hill, Tennessee

10/24/2016
Armada Nutrition will expand its operations center in Spring Hill, Tennessee. The food packaging company will invest $2.1 million and create 310 new jobs over the next five years in Maury County.

The company will be taking over an existing 300,000 square foot facility, previously owned by Capstone Nutrition, located at 4637 Port Royal Road in Spring Hill. The new facility will be primarily used for contract blending and packaging of sports nutrition products. The company will be adding new machinery and data equipment to the facility over the next five years, and with this expansion, Armada will also create 310 new jobs as well as retain 111 jobs from Capstone Nutrition.

“We feel fortunate to be in a position to have acquired this fantastic facility,” Armada General Manager Brent Laffey said. “We are extremely excited to welcome the employees and value the experience and industry expertise they will bring. We are looking forward to continuing to grow the business and expand our team by employing from within the Spring Hill community.”

“Tennessee has the workforce and business climate that makes companies not only want to locate new operations here, but existing companies want to expand and excel here,” Governor Bill Haslam said. “We appreciate Armada Nutrition for choosing to increase its operations in our state and for creating more than 300 jobs in Maury County. Armada Nutrition’s decision to expand in Spring Hill brings us one step closer to our goal of making Tennessee the No. 1 location in the Southeast for high quality jobs.”

“We would like to thank Armada Nutrition for expanding in Maury County, as their decision to create over 300 new jobs is a further vote of confidence for our entire community and its workforce,” Maury County Chamber and Economic Alliance President Wil Evans said. “This project also provides the employees previously working for Capstone Nutrition an opportunity to retain their positions and for this, we express our deepest gratitude to Armada. We would also like to thank our state, regional and local economic development partners for their efforts in this exciting project.”
