Major fast food distributor opening facility in Jefferson City, creating 80 new jobs

JEFFERSON CITY, Tenn. (WVLT) – A major fast food distributor announced its expansion into Tennessee with a new distribution facility in Jefferson City.

On Friday, Governor Bill Lee joined officials with the Anderson-DuBose Company to announce a nearly $40 million investment for a distribution facility that will create 80 new jobs.

The company, which is a major distributor of McDonald’s, said the new facility is expected to support up to 450 restaurant locations throughout the region.

“Today marks an exciting milestone in Jefferson County as Anderson-DuBose has decided to call the Volunteer State home,” said Gov. Lee. “This investment will create greater opportunity for families across the region, and our state’s strong and dedicated workforce will ensure Anderson-DuBose success for years to come.”

The Anderson-DuBose Company started in 1991 with the acquisition of a McDonald’s distribution center. Since then, the company has experienced significant growth globally.

“We are thrilled to be expanding into Tennessee and building our state-of-the-art distribution center in Jefferson City. This investment will help us meet the cold and dry food service storage needs of our valued customers in the Southeast,” said Anderson-DuBose President Mike Boddy.

It is the company’s first location in Tennessee.
