Bobo's launches wind-powered production facility in Colorado

US snack brand Bobo’s has launched a new wind-powered production facility in Loveland, Colorado. The 123,000-square-foot plant will enable Bobo's to expand production of its bars, bites and toaster pastries, while reducing its carbon footprint. The company is aiming to achieve carbon neutrality by December this year. Bobo's says that it has invested significantly to improve the speed and efficiency of its baking capabilities without changing its products' “handmade look and feel”. Founder Beryl Stafford said: "It's truly amazing to think back to when my daughter Bobo and I baked that first batch of oat bars in my kitchen". She continued: "It's extremely rewarding to see how far we've come today as we stay true to that same home-baked, handmade quality, only now in 24 ovens. All of which produce the same yummy snacks made with the same wholesome ingredients and the same delicious taste and texture as that first oat bar in 2003. “As we have scaled our production from my kitchen to this new 'super' bakery, through it all, it's remained paramount that we maintain the quality of our products." Bobo's says that the new bakery has the ability to produce 1 million bars, bites or toaster pastries per day, with plans already in place to further increase capacity.
