The J.M. Smucker Co. announced plans to invest $1.1 billion to build a new manufacturing facility and distribution center in the Birmingham region, located in the McCalla area of Jefferson County. Dedicated to the production of the company’s fast-growing Uncrustables sandwiches, the facility will create 750 jobs.
Construction is expected to begin no later than January 2022, with production expected to start in 2025. This is the third facility dedicated to the production of Uncrustables in the United States. With this facility and an expansion of an existing facility in Colorado, the company plans to double its current production capacity to grow the Uncrustables brand to approximately $1 billion in annual sales over the next five years.
