Meat processing plant proposed in New York, would add 65 jobs

A new business venture called Full Circle Packing is proposing an $18 million project to construct a new facility in a Frankfurt, N.Y., business park. The proposed 40,500-square-foot plant would add up to 65 full-time jobs to the area, reports the Utica Observer Daily.

“The project would put more dollars in the pockets of dairy farmers and cattle dealers by saving transportation costs and the weight loss and death that sometimes occurs during a long truck ride,” said John Zielinski, associated with Full Circle Packing. “There is not a sizable processing facility in the entire state of New York.”
