A California-based supplier to the fast-food industry is expanding its operations in Texas with a new manufacturing and distribution facility for its liquid products division to be built in Burleson.

Golden State Foods Corp. is set to invest more than $70 million in a 200,000-square-foot project that will create 150 hourly and management jobs over the next several years.

Golden State Foods received a Texas Enterprise Fund grant offer of $900,000, contingent on the company investing more than $19 million and creating the 150 new Texas jobs.

John Maguire, Golden State Foods' vice president of liquid products North America, said in a statement the company was impressed with Burleson's "professionalism, compelling economic incentive package and investments in the local workforce."

"We're looking forward to becoming an active part of this fine community," he said. "There were many options in the Southwest, but Burleson was the best choice for us."

Plants in the company's liquid products area typically make condiments, including dressings and sandwich sauces.

Golden State Foods serves more than 125,000 restaurants and stores on five continents from its 50 locations, including two in Texas. Golden State Foods owns Quality Custom Distribution, which operates distribution centers in Dallas and Schertz, east of San Antonio.
