Tyson Foods has expanded its workforce projections for its Caseyville Prepared Foods facility, creating approximately 400 new team member positions to meet the growing demand for Hillshire Farm and Jimmy Deangrab-n-go snacking and breakfast items. This boost in facility team members is a result of the $180 million expansion currently in development. Seven state-of-the-art production lines and 270,000 square feet will be added to the existing Caseyville facility to increase automated warehousing and robotics.
“Since our facility’s operations began in 2005, Tyson Foods has become a pillar of our community, contributing to our city’s economic growth and giving back to the residents of Caseyville through community outreach,” said Christopher Rogers, the Tyson Foods Caseyville plant manager. “This expansion will allow us to welcome hundreds of new team members to Tyson Foods, while being better equipped to serve the community we call home.”
