Food Processing Corporate Site Selection
Every company must take into account shipping costs. But as a food processing company seeking to locate or relocate, shelf-life limitations dictate that you not only take into account your proximity to market, but that you simultaneously consider the resilience of your perishable ingredients relative to origin.
And as a food-processing company, this is only one of the ways that you are uniquely challenged during the corporate site selection process. Consider:
Large-scale food processing requires substantial numbers dependable workers with relatively low levels of skill, which makes proximity to large pools of labor crucial.
Disposal of food processing byproducts can be an environmental concern, meaning that the local sewer infrastructure must be adequate to meet the needs of your food processing operation while simultaneously protecting the health of the surrounding population.
Food processing and packaging are highly automated operations that are water- and energy-intense, making the relative cost and reliability of utilities a primary consideration.
Far too many site selection consultants treat corporate site selection as if it were merely a change in geography for a company—especially if they approach the project from other disciplines, such as accountancy or commercial/industrial real estate.
Ady International Company is unique in that any corporate site selection consultation we undertake for you is personally led by our president Robert M. Ady, a site selection expert who has identified more prime locations for corporations in the U.S. than any other individual.
