Dover Food Retail, a division of Dover Corporation, will invest over $20 million to expand its manufacturing campus in Virginia by relocating production of its Anthony brand from Sylmar, California. The move is expected to create more than 300 new jobs over the next year.
The expansion will enhance the company’s production of commercial glass refrigerator and freezer doors and frames, manufactured by skilled workers using advanced technology to meet the needs of food retail customers in North America and globally.
According to the company, the investment will include new equipment installations, an expansion of research and development laboratories, the creation of a parts hub, and the establishment of a new distribution center of excellence at the Virginia site.
"We are excited to be able to continue the growth journey in our Virginia campus," said Paul Sindoni, President of Dover Food Retail. "This latest round of investments will add all-new, state-of-the-art equipment to our factories, expand our research and development laboratories, create a Dover Food Retail parts hub, and establish our new distribution center of excellence."
