Hurst Equips Largest Milk Processing Facility in North America
Hurst Boiler, AB. Young Co. and Shambaugh & Sons Contractors combine technologies and services to design, build and equip the largest milk processing facility in North America. A $235 million dairy plant being built in Garden City, Kansas is expected not only to bolster the area’s growing dairy industry, but also provide jobs, grow ancillary businesses, and provide another source of water to the city. In August 2015, the Garden City Commission approved a development agreement with Meadowlark Dairy Nutrition, LLC, a subsidiary of Dairy Farmers of America, to build a USDA dairy dryer milk processing plant and related facilities on 156 acres on the east side of U.S. Highway 83 between the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad and the Arkansas River. The plant is being built on city-owned land
