Americas: Kemin Industries expands US facility

Kemin Industries held a ceremonial groundbreaking for its new Des Moines, US, corporate headquarters that included a 90,000 square foot building with hundreds of Kemin employees inside their future office spaces.

Scheduled to be completed by early 2017, the new building will connect the recently opened Molecular Advancement Center (MAC) on the northeast side of the campus to the new headquarters.

The headquarters will house nearly 350 employees along with a fitness center and dining facility.

In October 2010, the company announced a US$40 million expansion plan that would add new jobs, multiple manufacturing and research facilities and a new global headquarters.

In September 2014, Kemin increased the total expansion investment to US$125.5 million, more than tripling the initial investment to support its focus on providing safe and healthy food to a growing world.
