February 10/Sparks, Nev./Press Release -- NOW Foods announced an accelerated completion date for the second phase of its new 130,000-square-foot West Coast distribution and manufacturing facility in Sparks, Nev. Phase two features installation of equipment and related building improvements required to complete the manufacturing portion of its local operation. Because of the accelerated timeline for the manufacturing operation, NOW Foods announced it will begin hiring for the newly created manufacturing, management and chemist jobs beginning in March 2012.
“NOW Foods achieved tremendous global growth in the last year, allowing us to accelerate the completion of phase two of the West Coast distribution and manufacturing facility sooner than expected," said Al Powers, CEO of NOW Health Group. “Because of the business-friendly environment Nevada offers, it made sense to move so quickly here. This is a great opportunity to accommodate our high-growth rate and better serve our customers, and work with the northern Nevada community to generate positive economic movement."
