The Andersons, Inc. groundbreaking in the Hoosier Hearland Industrial Park in Delphi proved successful according to the Carroll County Economic Development Corporation.
According to the corporation and the Wabash Valley Power Alliance, the groundbreaking was a success regardless of the weather that surrounded it, and the new center will replace a nearby facility in the future.
“We had a great turnout, even in the cold, last week for The Andersons, Inc. ground breaking at the Hoosier Hearland Industrial Park,” the corporation released. “Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate with us.”
The Andersons, Inc. announced earlier this month that it will be establishing a distribution center in Delphi in the Hoosier Heartland Industrial Park in the near future.
The Andersons, Inc. is described as a leading diversified company rooted in agriculture and will be joining the Delphi Hoosier Heartland Industrial Park with a new distribution center designed to replace a nearby facility. The new distribution center will be strategically located near the company’s manufacturing operations, and the facility be on a long-term lease.
Vice President and General Manager of Contract and Carrier Manufacturing for The Andersons, Inc. Kelly Bodway commented about the company’s decision to invest in the Hoosier Heartland Industrial Park will allow for the company to streamline its operations even more.
“We are pleased to be able to partner with Carroll County, Indiana, to bring this new distribution center to the Hoosier Heartland Industrial Park,” Bodway said. “The facility’s central location will enable us to effectively support our customers and offers the opportunity to continue to grow our business.”
According to the company, the new distribution center is expected to be operational by the end of 2024 to support The Andersons, Inc.’s cob and paper-based products production and distribution to the lab, pet and industrial markets. Carroll County Economic Development Corporation Executive Director Jacob Adams expressed his insights into the addition of The Andersons, Inc. to the area.
“The Andersons bringing this facility to Carroll County is a testament to the appeal of the Hoosier Heartland Industrial Park as a prime location for businesses looking to thrive,” Adams said. “We believe that our continued investments into housing, broadband and infrastructure are the catalysts for growth in our community.”
The Andersons, Inc. specializes in commodity merchandising, renewables and nutrient and industrial sectors. For more information regarding the company or its upcoming placement in the Delphi community, visit andersonsinc.com.
