BLOOMINGTON –
A $75 million investment in Bloomington will bring 50 new jobs to the state.  Global confectionery company Ferrero Group held a groundbreaking ceremony for its new chocolate processing facility – the company’s first location outside of Europe, and only third production in the world.  The new facility is an expansion of Ferrero’s existing Bloomington manufacturing center and will process chocolate for Crunch, 100Grand, Raisinets, and more.

 “We are so fortunate to have a global corporation like Ferrero breaking ground,” said Bloomington Mayor Mboka Mwilambwe. “Their confidence in Bloomington can only strengthen our already vibrant business community.”
