Natural Choice Foods the parent company of Daily Deals Food Outlet, has significantly expanded its operations with an additional 30,000 square feet of freezer space. This expansion will enable Natural Choice Foods to increase its capacity to process and store excess food, handle repackaged goods, and increase the number of trucks loading inventory, advancing its mission to reduce food waste.
On September 16, 2024, NCF’s owner, Shayne Eisenga, and tenured team members broke ground on the new facility. “It’s an honor to start this project alongside the dedicated team members who have been instrumental in driving NCF’s mission forward,” said Eisenga. “This expansion reinforces our commitment to diverting food from landfills and ensuring that valuable resources aren’t wasted. A big thank you to all team members for their dedication to our continued growth, and I am deeply grateful to all of you.”
The construction will be led by Pinnacle Construction Group of Grand Rapids, with Phoenix overseeing the expansion of refrigeration systems. Natural Choice Foods remains committed to supporting the local economy by working with regional contractors, sub-contractors, and suppliers whenever possible, and with this expansion, they will have the capacity to increase their production value.
“This marks a major milestone for NCF and our dedicated team of 280 people. By expanding our freezer capacity, we’re not only scaling up our operations and creating jobs but also deepening our impact on reducing food waste and addressing food insecurity.”
