“After 15 years of being in Coffee County, we are excited to continue growing by expanding our team and business here in Tullahoma.

Founded and headquartered in Navarre, Ohio, MDS Foods Inc. has served supermarket delis and restaurants across the U.S. as a manufacturer and supplier of premium cheese slices, shreds, chunks, cubes and loaves for nearly 20 years.
