SEWARD, NEB. — Scoular, an Omaha-based company that offers supply chain solutions for grain, feed and food ingredients suppliers, has unveiled plans to build a new freeze-drying manufacturing facility in Seward. The facility will establish Scoular’s new freeze-dried pet food ingredients platform. Scoular will invest approximately $50 million to build the facility, which is expected to create nearly 100 new jobs. A groundbreaking ceremony is expected to take place in June. Construction of the 105,000-square-foot building will take approximately 14 to 16 months to complete and be operational by early fall 2020. An indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of the company will construct the facility.
