West Point Dairy in Hyrum, Utah, released an expansion plan for the upcoming production period. The dairy product manufacturing company plans on increasing its butter production by 500,000 pounds a week.
Assistant plant manager Ron Duvall said the current butter production is 2.5 million pounds a week.
“We have such a market for it, and we have the demand in that market,” Duvall said. “We just need to bump up our supply to meet that demand.”
The plant’s quality manager Todd Rasmussen said the “product will remain butter, but our growth is what is truly changing the facility.”
“The biggest growth is with our quantity of butter,” Rasmussen said. “More butter, rather than more of a diversity of products.”
The company started manufacturing butter from cream in 1976 and does not plan on stopping production.
“The company is projecting considerable growth in the next five to ten years,” Rasmussen said.
