JEFFERSON CITY, Tenn. — A major food distributor for McDonald's will be expanding into Tennessee setting up operations in Jefferson County.
State leaders announced the Anderson-DuBose Company will be opening a distribution facility in Jefferson City. The project will create 80 new jobs once it is finished, Gov. Bill Lee said.
"Today marks an exciting milestone in Jefferson County as Anderson-DuBose has decided to call the Volunteer State home. This investment will create greater opportunity for families across the region, and our state’s strong and dedicated workforce will ensure Anderson-DuBose success for years to come,” Lee said.
