Great Lakes Cheese executives were in Manchester for the official groundbreaking of their new facility in the Manchester Industrial Park on Tuesday. This of course could represent new jobs for not only Coffee County residents, but perhaps those living in Rutherford County as well. 

Great Lakes Cheese will construct a 330,000 square foot manufacturing facility in Manchester. The new facility will be the 4th super plant that Great Lakes Cheese operates and its 9th facility nationwide. Employment at this new plant is anticipated to reach 200 people by 2019.

President and CEO Gary Vanic said that the future employees will share in the profits of Great Lakes Cheese because not only are they workers but also owners. Great Lakes Cheese is headquartered in Hiram, Ohio.
