Abstract

Excerpts from the report: The food industry in the United States is undergoing various changes. One of the significant changes is the trend for food firms to move to modern facilities that are planned for efficient operating methods. However, many firms are unable or unwilling to make such a move. This situation now faces some of the firms in Salt Lake City. Leading members of the food industry in Salt Lake City realized that to operate efficiently, many of these firms should relocate. These businessmen and various local and State government officials requested the USDA to make a study of the food facility situation in Salt Lake City. The study was begun in February 1967. The study has the following objectives: • To analyze, insofar as possible, the food-marketing facilities in the Salt Lake City area. • To estimate the major costs to food firms of handling food products in the facilities. • To develop plans and designs for new facilities and to consider possible sites to meet the present and future needs of food firms. • To estimate costs of facility construction, land, possible operating expenses, and rental requirements. • To estimate possible savings and other benefits from improved food-marketing facilities.
