Stamey Farms is partnering with Ecuador’s leading yogurt producer to build a
$7.5 million yogurt plant and develop a line of yogurts for distribution
throughout the Southeast.
The plant could open by years end near Stamey Farms off Interstate 40 in
western Iredell County. It will employ at least 32 people, Stamey Farms owner
Bob Stamey said.
Stamey Farms has been one of Americas leading exporters of live dairy cattle.
Iredell County has the most number of dairy cows in the state, so the county is
a good fit for a plant producing a product that relies on milk, Stamey said.
