Pro Food Systems Inc. plans to invest $6 million to build a new headquarters
HOLTS SUMMIT, MO. -- A food wholesaler and distribution company is expanding its operations in mid-Missouri.
Pro Food Systems Inc., which primarily markets and distributes Champs Chicken products, plans to invest $6 million to construct a new headquarters facility in an expansion that is expected to create 43 new jobs.
The roots of Pro Food Systems go back to 1999, when the company established the first Champs Chicken account in Auxvasse, MO. After a move from Willard to Holts Summit, the company grew substantially during the ensuing years. Champs Chicken products are now being sold in supermarkets and convenience stores in 29 states and the companyfs annual revenues exceed $25 million. The current expansion of the company will include the addition of a breading/blending facility, logistics service center, and print companies, all under the umbrella of Pro Food Systems.
The Department of Economic Development authorized an economic incentive package that includes incentives from the Enhanced Enterprise Zone and Community Development Block Grant programs to help the expansion.
