Prepared meal delivery service Freshly is opening a facility in Austell, Georgia, which will reduce order-to-delivery cycle time and bring over 250 jobs to the greater Atlanta area.
The 134,000 square foot facility will be Freshly's largest dedicated order-assembly facility to date and will begin operating in mid-February.
"2020 was a year of monumental growth for Freshly. We joined the Nestlé USA family, expanded West Coast operations, and launched FreshlyFit, to name a few major milestones," said Mike Wystrach, Freshly Founder and CEO, in a statement. "Joining Nestlé has allowed us to scale bigger and faster, getting us to this next stage of growth. We are thrilled to continue in 2021 by expanding operations in the Southeast and have plans to add even more facilities this year that will help further our mission of delivering nutritious and convenient meals."
"Our new Georgia facility creates opportunities to bring innovation to the direct-to-consumer distribution channel with added capacity for efficient assembly and distribution of fresh prepared meals. We are excited to expand Freshly's footprint and to join the Austell community," said Rick Stoecklein, Freshly's senior vice president of operations, in a statement.
