To-Jo Mushrooms, Inc. announces today that it has recently expanded its Farm production through the securing of an additional 200,000 sq. ft. of mushroom growing capacity. These new growing beds will be dedicated to both White and Brown mushroom production and will enable To-Jo to harvest an additional 8 million lbs. of product annually to better serve its customer base.
The increase in production coincides with the completion of an 8,000 sq. ft. expansion of their Avondale headquarters that includes a new state of the art fresh mushroom receiving area, additional cold storage capacity and a new pre-cleaned mushroom processing area. The expansion is in line with the company’s strategic vision, and will enable To-Jo to keep pace with the growing demand for mushrooms in both the foodservice and retail divisions of its business.
“By continuously improving our facilities and increasing our production capacity for our customers we will ensure that only the freshest, highest quality products will be delivered out from our facilities on a daily basis. These improvements will help keep To-Jo at the forefront of an ever expanding mushroom category.” Said President Tony D’Amico
