Netherlands-based multinational corporation DSM plans to build a plant in Tonganoxie to produce nutritional premix for pet food. It plans to break ground in July and be operational by early 2025, according to a release. The plant will create 28 jobs. Nutritional premix includes vitamins and minerals that are assembled and later added to food to improve its nutritional value. The mix made in Tonganoxie will be used in branded pet food throughout the world. Tonganoxie was chosen strategically to be included in Kansas City’s Animal Health Corridor.
