Voyage Foods Plans Manufacturing Facility in Mason Ohio

Voyage Foods has selected Mason, Ohio as the site for their new innovative food manufacturing facility. The 284,000 facility will be the home base for their cocoa-free chocolate, nut-free spreads, and bean-free coffee. The manufacturing plant is expected to be operational by 2025 and will have the capacity to make 10,000 metric tons of cocoa-free chocolate annually once fully built.

The facility will be partially funded by a guaranteed loan program from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The facility will also support Cargill, which became Voyage’s exclusive B2B global distributor for the nut-free spreads and cocoa-free chocolate.

The food company largely uses plant-based ingredients upcycled from waste and side streams. Their sustainable approach does not compromise on flavor and uses less water and land than traditional counterparts.
