A M King has begun renovation of a Greensboro facility chosen by Southern Foods to house its meat and fish processing operations. The 88,000 sf unfinished precast concrete building on Westcliff Road, when complete, will allow the company to move to a modern space, shore up its Southeast business and open the largest test kitchen the company has developed to date. The project is scheduled to be complete by late 2019.
Southern Foods, a Cheney Brothers, Inc. affiliate, is a full-service seafood, premium meats, artisanal cheese and global and local specialty goods supplier. Southern Foods was one of the first companies in the country licensed to sell Certified Angus Beef. Other brands include Cheshire Pork, Carolina Bison, Emmi and Sabantino Tartufi, to name a few.
