150 Jobs in Fort Wayne from Heritage Foods

Heritage Food Service Equipment, Inc. has plans to expand their Fort Wayne, Indiana headquarters and warehouse facilities.

The expansions should occur by March of this year, and create up to 150 new jobs at the site. The cost of the expansion has been put at $1.5 million and is being made partly possible by tax incentives. $1 million in performance-based tax credits has been offered by the Indiana Economic Development Corporation, in addition to a maximum $88,500 in training grants.

Vice President Dave Gawthrop said ‘This expansion will be very beneficial to the future of Heritage Food Service.” He continued “We believe that Fort Wayne offers us an opportunity to work toward reaching our full potential as a business and we want to take advantage of the benefits of expanding our facility here.”
