TOMRA Sorting Food opens new facility in West Sacramento

TOMRA Sorting Solutions’ US Food division held its official office opening on June 18 in its new facility in West Sacramento, California.

The company’s 50-plus team has relocated to a new purpose-built site, which is more 30 percent larger than its previous building in California, according to the company.

The event was attended by city officials, employees and customers as well as senior figures from the company, including TOMRA’s CEO, Stefan Ranstrand; Head of TOMRA Sorting, Volker Rehrmann; and Senior Vice-President and Head of TOMRA Sorting Food, Ashley Hunter.

Attendees had the opportunity to tour the new facility and view a selection of TOMRA’s machines in action, including its latest technology for sorting nuts, such as almonds, walnuts and pistachios.

“With extra space and better facilities, including test, demonstration and development areas, the new West Sacramento site will enable our US team to concentrate on developing solutions for the food industry in the region,” said Ashley Hunter. “The new premises will enable them to better serve their growing customer base in terms of sales and service.”
