WORCESTER – Table Talk Pies announced Thursday it will build a new 120,000 square foot bakery in the former Crompton & Knowles Complex in the Main South neighborhood of Worcester.
The new state-of-the-art and energy efficient facility is expected to open in June 2021. It will replace the company’s current and largest operation operation on Washington Street in Kelley Square which opened in 1942.
Some 130 current full-time production staff will move to working at the new facility with 50 new full-time positions added over the first three years. 60% of Table Talk’s current employees live in Worcester.
Chacharone Properties is a partner in the move and will invest $10 million in the project. Table Talk will lease from Chacharone and add $12 million in new equipment and building improvements.
Chacharone also worked with Table Talk on its 25 Southgate Street bakery which opened in 2017.
Table Talk also opened a 30,000 square foot cold storage warehouse at 65 Armory Street in September 2019.
