The family owners of Edgewood Locker of Edgewood, Iowa, broke ground on a new construction project. The 19,000-square-foot facility, an $8.6 million project, will take about a year to complete. According to KCRG News, the company hopes to add 20 full-time jobs when the project is complete.
“Today is just really exciting for us,” said Luke Kerns, Edgewood Locker co-owner. He said that the company has been busy ever since the COVID pandemic, and it is booked out on beef processing through 2022.
