The New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets issued the following news release:
Lt. Gov. Mary O. Donohue announced today that Kraft Foods will invest more than $10 million and retain 331 jobs at its Lowville facility, located in the Lewis County Empire Zone. The investment improves Kraft's competitiveness and better positions the Lowville plant for future investments and expansion.
"This is tremendous news for Lewis County and for our state's manufacturing sector," Lieutenant Governor Donohue said. "This project will not only retain jobs for hardworking New Yorkers, but will also be a huge boost to New York's local dairy farmers, who supply the milk used at the Lowville plant."
