In an effort to freeze more, ship more and sell more, Sister’s Home Style Entrees has announced a 20,000 square foot expansion of its production facility at 1303 22nd St. N. in Humboldt.
The large warehousing facility will nearly double the plant size of the Sister’s location in the Northwest Industrial Park.
“It will be a 100-foot by 200-foot warehouse area with new docks for semis coming in to unload. That will be phase 1,” Sister’s owner and CEO Deb Davis proudly states.
“Phase 2 will be a new freezer that will be 65-foot by 100-foot. It will greatly streamline the process of product going out our doors. Now, it’s into the freezer, back out to package and then back in. The new freezer space will allow us to be much more efficient in our product packaging component,” Davis said.
