Tyson Foods to create 400 jobs at Caseyville Prepared Foods facility

Tyson Foods has expanded its workforce projections for its Caseyville Prepared Foods facility, creating approximately 400 new team member positions to meet the growing demand for Hillshire Farm and Jimmy Dean grab-n-go snacking and breakfast items. This boost in facility team members is a result of the $180M expansion currently in development. Seven state of the art production lines and 270,000 square feet will be added to the existing Caseyville facility to increase automated warehousing and robotics. The facility expansion officially broke ground in August 2022 and is expected to be complete in late 2024. The Caseyville facility plans to hire for positions across the maintenance, Food Safety Quality Assurance, warehousing, production, and management departments. About 250 of these team members are expected to start work across four new production lines by September 2023, while 150 are expected to begin work across three new production lines by the project’s completion.
