Norton Shores coffee plant will add 100 jobs with $479 million expansion

La Colombe coffee company in Norton Shores is planning to invest $479 million in expanding its manufacturing site.

The planning commission on Tuesday approved a plan that calls for expanding the eastern side of the building by nearly 53,000 square feet, which will include new truck loading areas. Phase two will add nearly 2,000 square feet within the existing footprint.

The expansion will allow the business to add 100 jobs to the operation.

“That really looks like it’s a good-size investment getting close to $500 million and adding in an extra hundred production workers. That’s really exciting for the area,” Paul Isely, the associate dean of the Seidman College of Business in at Grand Valley State University, said.
