New MBG Marketing Facility In The Works For South Haven, MI
December 29, 2015 | 1 min to read
SOUTH HAVEN – Plans are moving ahead for a long-anticipated fruit processing and cold storage facility that could bring up to 200 jobs to South Haven.
MBG Marketing in 2012 bought 42 acres on the north side of Second Avenue on the city's far northeast edge, from the city.
City officials said MBG plans to sell the eastern 25 acres of the Second Avenue site to Hanson Logistics, which in turn would lease space to Dole. MBG, which does business as Naturipe, would further have a processing facility.
City Manager Brian Dissette said the sale may have recently occurred, but he could not immediately verify that.
