Specialty foods manufacturer Alfresco Pasta Brand LLC is committing $3.8 million to open a new facility in Bells, TN that will help the company meet rising demand, Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee announced this week.
In operation for over two decades, Alfresco Pasta Brand produces pasta, sauces, pizza dough, and prepared meals. The company is relocating its operations from Nashville.
“Moving to our new location in Bells will enable Alfresco Pasta to increase our production capacity by over six times our current rate, helping us meet the growing demand for our high-end product line, including with large national accounts,” Chris Grisson, the company’s president, said in a release. “It also gives us the ability to expand our offering with innovative new products to keep up with the rising demand for fresh, healthy foods.”
Slated to become operational by the second quarter of 2022, the location in Bells is expected to employ 58 people.
Alfresco Pasta currently operates over 10 warehouses that serve 40 states. The firm was established in Nashville in 2000.
