BIRDS EYE TO REFOCUS ON BRANDED BUSINESS

Birds Eye Foods says it will sell five non-branded frozen vegetable production facilities within the next year and a half. The move will allow the company to focus its resources on its branded business, including the newly released Birds Eye Steamfresh product. The company’s Montezuma, Georgia facility is one of those on the closure list.

Details are available at the company's website.
