Kentucky Dairy Product Innovations (KYDPI) is set to open a dairy processing facility in London city, Kentucky, US, which involves an investment of around $4m.
The company has signed a lease-purchase agreement to acquire 12,000ft² facility in the London-Laurel County Industrial Park.
KYDPI president Matthew Clark was quoted by areadevelopment.com as saying, "Through the use of our patented processing technologies, our product will contain all of the nutrients found in milk, but none of the calories associated with lactose."
The company is expected to be operational by the end of 2014, and plans to recruit around 20 employees.
FIZZA will be the firm's initial customer, which is a dairy nutrient beverage approved by the USDA for sale at middle and high schools across the country.
The company will manufacture products formulated by dairies and manufacturers into new recipes to attract more health-conscious consumers.
