Major agri-business complex planned for Cascade County, Montana with potential for 3,000 new jobs

A massive agri-business commercial food park is planned for Cascade County, about 8 miles southeast of the city off the highway between here and Belt that will eventually employ an estimated 3,000 people.

Friesen Foods LLC has submitted an application for a special use permit, which essentially kick starts the development process in the county, said Brian Clifton, public works director for Cascade County.

Appliction documents indicate that the project could spur growth of other local businesses and potentially create 85 additional positions in those areas.
