Monogram Foods, along with Paradigm Partners and Dacon Corporation, recently broke ground on a new 135,000-square-foot manufacturing and processing facility in Haverhill, Massachusetts, where Monogram will use the facility for their sandwich product lines. To mark the event, the Paradigm Partners, the Monogram Loves Kids Foundation, and Designed with Dignity philanthropy program by Dacon collectively donated $15,000 to Massachusetts-based Emmaus Incorporated. 

Monogram Foods, a privately-held food manufacturer headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee, has completed an acquisition of Quality Food Processors located in Denison, Iowa. With this acquisition Monogram annual revenue will exceed $1 billion. The acquisition, which integrates a former supplier into the Monogram family, highlights Monogram’s commitment to expanding its business by joining with companies that share similar values. 

Monogram Foods has started construction on a new 135,000-square-foot production facility in Creek Brook Park, Haverhill, Massachusetts. Monogram has plant and warehousing facilities in Indiana, Iowa, Minnesota, Virginia and Wisconsin. This is Monogram’s 3rd Massachusetts location, and will feature 109,000 square feet of multi-temperature warehouse space, plus a 26,000-square-foot sandwich assembly area. The facility is expected to be completed by mid-2022.

Monogram Foods has entered into a licensing agreement with Utz and Zapp’s brands to launch a line of unique and different take-home hot appetizers. Consumers can now enjoy their favorite snack flavors in hot appetizers, available in the frozen appetizer section of leading retailers.

At first thought of a plant closure, the industry freaks. But, according to Karl Schledwitz, chief executive officer of Monogram Comfort Foods, who spoke exclusively with Refrigerated & Frozen Foods’ editor-in-chief Marina Mayer, this transition actually opens doors for additional employee positions.
