    ATLANTA – A national leader in delivering fresh meals will invest $6.3 million to expand its footprint in the rural community of Montezuma, creating more than 300 new jobs, Gov. Brian Kemp announced Tuesday.

    FreshRealm’s expansion in Macon County will allow the company to add several new lines, including ready-to-heat and ready-to-cook meals and meal kits.

    Kemp said the company fits in well with Georgia’s No.-1 industry – agriculture.

    “Food and fiber production contributed $83.6 billion and 323,300 jobs to our economy this past year,” he said. “We’re thankful for the 300 new positions that will join that growing number of opportunities thanks to FreshRealm.”

    “Montezuma is an excellent location for us strategically to reach the entire U.S., especially the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast,” added Snow Le, president of Texas-based FreshRealm. “We are proud to be expanding our operations in Georgia.”

    FreshRealm will be hiring for positions across a range of roles, including entry-level assemblers, technical, and maintenance staff, as well as managerial positions. Interested individuals can learn more about those job opportunities at boards.greenhouse.io/freshrealm.

    The state Department of Economic Development’s Global Commerce team worked on the project in partnership with the Development Authority of Macon County, Georgia Power, and the Technical College System of Georgia’s Quick Start program.
