Deemed to be the largest single almond investment since 1910, Blue Diamond’s Turlock plant will meet growing global demand for almond ingredients and create more than 300 jobs.
Blue Diamond Almonds Global Ingredients Division, Sacramento, Calif., agrees with the president of the China Chamber of Commerce to sell $50 million of Blue Diamond almonds.
Blue Diamond Almonds’ ingredients business is transitioning its name from Industrial Products to Blue Diamond Almonds Global Ingredients Division. It’s the largest division within Blue Diamond Growers, which is expecting revenues this year to approach $1 billion.
In order to align the company’s workforces around the world, Rich Products implements a new organizational structure and forms a U.S./Canada region. Separately, Blue Diamond Growers constructs a 200,000-sq.-ft. manufacturing plant in Turlock, Calif.
