Kentucky’s Winning Formula for the Food and Beverage Industry
20 Feb 2019
The logistics/distribution advantages to be found in Kentucky, as well as its strength in agriculture, have made it a premier location for new and expanding companies in the food and beverage industry.
One of the most important aspects in food production is the ability to deliver fresh products to customers in a timely manner. Anything short of that simply will not cut it in a highly competitive market. That is why so many food production companies are turning to Kentucky for their distribution needs.
The food and beverage industry has long been a driving force within Kentucky’s economic makeup, from longstanding agricultural roots to its prominence as a producer of 95 percent of the country’s bourbon. Food processing in Kentucky has come a lot further than that, however, as the Commonwealth has become a premier location for new and expanding companies. A leading factor behind that growth has been logistics and distribution.
