TOOELE, Utah (AP) - British company Reckitt Benckiser, which makes products like Lysol and French's Mustard, has broken ground on a $35 million distribution center in Tooele County.
The company, which has U.S. headquarters in Parsippany, N.J., says its 600,000-square-foot facility could eventually employ as many as 140 people after construction is competed in 2010.
The center will be the first building in the Miller Motorsports Business Park.
Brad Newman, director of North America Supply Services for Reckitt Benckiser, says the distribution center will enhance service for customers in the Pacific Northwest and western Canada.
The new facility will replace an existing center in Phoenix, which is run by a third party.
