Clovis Commissioners Approve Bond Resolution For Southwest Cheese

Clovis City Commissioners approved a resolution for a taxable industrial revenue bond up to $160 million to help Southwest Cheese with its third expansion.

Southwest Cheese President George Chappell said the expansion would “without a doubt” make the plant the largest one in the world.

“There are some other cheese plants that come close (to being the largest),” Chappell told commissioners, “and depending on the date I use caution when I say we’re the largest, but in the future with this expansion, I won’t need caution.”
