US Foods Holding Corp., one of the nation’s leading foodservice companies, has broken ground on the expansion of the company’s F. Christiana facility in Marrero, Louisiana. The investment will nearly triple the size of the current facility to support the company’s continued growth in Louisiana, parts of Mississippi and Alabama. The expansion will increase the facility size from 70,000 square feet to 200,000 square feet and is expected to be fully operational by late 2020.
To celebrate the kick-off of the project, US Foods hosted a groundbreaking ceremony with company leaders, government officials, local US Foods customers and other members of the community.
