DeMet's Candy to invest $13m 100,000 s/f facility

DeMet's Candy Co. broke ground on a candy processing plant in the Airport Corporate Park. The company is building a new home for its Turtles brand candy that the company acquired from Nestlés in July 2007.

The company has committed to creating a minimum of 100 new manufacturing jobs, in return for considerable financial assistance secured by STEG, including a $500,000 grant from Empire State Development, a $732,000 grant secured through the NYS Office of Community Renewal to assist with machinery purchase, $250,000 grant secured by senator George Winner via the Community Capital Access Program, and a $45,000 grant was secured by assemblyman Tom O'Mara to help offset the costs of constructing a public road to the facility.
