Food business closing plant in California after 115 years to set up in Texas after being forced out
Story by James Cirrone • 13h

The world's largest producer of mozzarella is closing one of its dairy plants in California due to the state's sky high operating costs.

Leprino Foods, headquartered in Denver, Colorado, supplies cheese for fast-food pizza restaurants, including Domino's, Pizza Hut and Papa John's.
 
For the last 115 years, the plant has operated in Lemoore, a small town deep within California's rural Central Valley.

But now more than a century of history is coming to a close, with an estimated 300 people set to lose their jobs when the plan shutters early next year.

To give people time to find new employment, Leprino announced the closure in November of last year.

They just don't recognize a well-run, business friendly environment like California when they see it. :whistle:
