Joyce Farms, Clemmons, N.C., celebrated the completion of a 10,400-square-foot expansion to its USDA-inspected poultry processing Clemmons, N.C., headquarters plant.

The expansion adds 10,400 square feet of space to the company’s previously 32,350-square-foot facility. It also includes a new warehouse of dry storage space for labels, packaging and other materials, and a new, state-of-the-art hatchery that will greatly improve the company’s capacity to incubate and hatch birds in its Heritage Poultry line. The hatchery will house three types of birds that are a part of the company's heritage line — the Poulet Rouge chicken, which is an authentic Label Rouge chicken, the Pintade Fermiere, which is a French Guinea hen, and the Heritage White Pheasant.
