Byrne Dairy Plans $32 Million Dairy Plant Expansion In DeWitt, New York
07/15/2013
According to the Greater Syracuse Economic Growth Council, Byrne Dairy built its Ultra Dairy plant at 6750 West Benedict Road in DeWitt in 2003 for $13 million and expanded it in 2008. Nick Marsella, the company's senior vice president, said the company invested $68 million in the plant, which employs 130 people.
Demand for ultra-pasteurized products is growing quickly, Marsella said. To meet it, the company plans to invest $14 million in new equipment into the existing building and build an $18 million addition of up to 100,000 square feet of space.
In return, the community would benefit by the payment of $5.2 million in payments in lieu of property taxes, $17.8 million in new employee wages and benefits over 10 years, a capital investment of $30 million by the company and $401,000 in project fees to the industrial development agency, according to its application.
Onondaga County Industrial Development Agency approved sales tax and other exemptions worth more than $1 million.
