Wellington said that it has choosen Corona as it had a highly-qualified pool of workers, a robust business expansion environment and the type of building they needed at the right price.
Tony Harnack, president of Wellington Foods, said: “The city of Corona has been great to work with. Team Corona met with Wellington management several times in what he described as a ‘helpful, open and collaborative process’ that made choosing Corona over the others easy.”
