Wiley gets the go ahead for second stage of Primo Smallgoods expansion
Australian food industry design and construction company Wiley has been given the green light for the second stage of a multi-million dollar expansion of smallgoods producer Primo Smallgoods.
The project involves construction of the largest Australian factory of its kind, with a combined project floor area of 40,000 square metres on an 8.6 hectare greenfield site in Wacol, west of Brisbane.
Stage one was completed recently and included construction of a raw material freezer and distribution chiller, while stage two will include construction of a ham, bacon, salami and smallgoods processing operation and corporate offices.
Wiley Managing Director Tom Wiley expects the construction and operation of a manufacturing plant will create 600 new jobs in Queensland.
