Pocino Foods, an industry leader in quality and innovation of deli and prepared meat products, has expanding its manufacturing plant. The $8 million upgrade is to assure that the company continues to lead the industry in quality control procedures by taking advantage of the latest and most advanced techniques available.
This expansion is the fourth and largest in the company’s 79 year history and is perhaps the most significant. The entire processing procedures were reassessed from top to bottom. One of the most notable changes was to completely separate and isolate raw and finished goods. The plant flows from raw to processed virtually eliminating any chance of cross contamination. Also, raw and cooked plant workers are completely segregated from entrances, lockers to separate lunch rooms. The new plant building set-up physically prevents a worker from entering a portion of the plant to which they are not assigned.
