County Of Monroe Industrial Development Agency OKs Wegmans Cheese Operation

COMIDA on Tuesday approved $713,000 worth of tax breaks for Wegmans Food Markets Inc. as it looks to add an $8.1 million cheese-aging facility to its Market Street campus in Chili.

According to Wegmans, it expects to add the equivalent of seven full-time jobs within three years. Such cheese aging now is done at the store level, and the facility would provide better control of the aging process. The site would serve all 81 Wegmans stores.

Wegmans said it had considered building the complex alongside its Pottsville, Pa., facility.
