Nestlé USA Expands Gaffney, South Carolina, Production Operations

11/28/2024
Food and beverage company Nestlé USA plans to expand its operations in Gaffney, Cherokee County, South Carolina.

The $150 million project will include a new line for the production of single-serve frozen meals as well as enhanced automation and digital technology.

“This investment further solidifies our dedication to the Gaffney community, where Nestlé has been an integral part for nearly 45 years. It also reflects our continued commitment to enhance our U.S. manufacturing footprint and in-house capabilities. These enhancements will enable us to meet the consumer demand for the beloved brands in our frozen meals portfolio,” Nestlé USA Gaffney Factory Manager Nicole Caldwell said.

Nestlé USA currently operates 112 offices and facilities in 28 states. The company’s portfolio includes brands such as Stouffer’s, Nestlé Toll House, Coffee-mate and more.

“We are proud to be a long-time partner of Nestlé USA and celebrate the company’s decades-long legacy in one of our state’s rural communities. This $150 million investment is a major victory for Cherokee County, and we look forward to Nestlé USA’s continued success in the community for many years to come,” Secretary of Commerce Harry M. Lightsey III noted.

“When we talk about the importance of agribusiness to South Carolina’s economy, we’re talking about companies like Nestlé USA. This food and beverage manufacturer has demonstrated its commitment to South Carolina over many decades, providing jobs and serving the public. This expansion is great news for the state,” added Commissioner of Agriculture Hugh Weathers.
