Dakota Dunes, South Dakota. December 23, 2019 —The empirical family of companies announced today that it will soon begin the construction of a new ground beef facility in Garden City, Kansas. The new facility will supplement empirical’s existing production at its South Sioux City, Nebraska location and represent the largest single investment in the company’s 40-year history.
Craig Letch, president of empirical foods, inc., noted that, “Demand for empirical’s lean ground beef requires us to significantly increase our processing capacity to meet the growing needs of our customers. This presents an exciting opportunity for the future of our company and the communities that we call home.”
When fully operational, the Garden City facility will more than double empirical’s current ground beef capacity and employ about 300 employees in the Garden City region. Given the technologically advanced nature of the empirical ground beef operations, there will be a greater need for skilled staff which will entail on the job training at the state-of-the-art facility.
