This modernized facility enhances Capacity and precision in fluid milk production.

To support continued growth and improve operational efficiency, Kroger partnered with Haskell to strategically expand its Heritage Farms Dairy facility in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. The 3,500-square-foot addition strengthens production capabilities and modernizes key systems that support one of the nation’s most recognized dairy brands.

Advanced automation, monitoring and controls facilitate significantly smarter operations.

Haskell provided a fully integrated solution for Kroger’s new refrigerated pasteurized milk alcove, including synchronized CIP piping systems, to ensure clean, consistent processing in compliance with all relevant regulations (FDA, USDA, and 3-A Sanitary Standards). Advanced automation upgrades, enhanced monitoring, control, and product flow, result in increased throughput and a reduced risk of downtime.

Strong project management and logistical coordination ensured a seamless installation with minimal disruption to ongoing production. Careful scheduling of equipment and silo deliveries enabled the project to stay on track while maintaining operations, all while meeting the established budget.

Building on more than four decades of partnership, Haskell delivered trusted technical expertise from design through startup. The team provided support for controls engineering, software development and hands-on operator training to ensure a seamless transition to enhanced operations, with continued field support safeguarding performance and product integrity.

The project was built for precision and flexibility today and expanded future needs.

The expansion reinforces Kroger’s position as a leader in reliable, high-volume dairy production. By strengthening precision processes and operational flexibility, the upgraded facility is prepared to scale with demand and continue delivering high-quality fluid milk to consumers across the region.
