Wholesale Produce Distributor Expands into South Alabama
Gulf Coast Produce of Alabama, Biloxi, Miss., announced plans to expand into the south Alabama market this summer, expanding the company's distribution of fresh produce, as well as frozen food, along the Gulf Coast in Alabama and Florida.
The wholesale produce distributor will lease the 94,000-square-foot building on East Section Street, last used by Peavey Electronics. The expansion is expected to bring on 25 new employees and rake in about $7.5 million in the first year.
