Running a cracker or cookie line near Buena Park and wondering if your packaging line can keep up with real retail volume? A factory on Artesia Boulevard, built in 1965, once answered that question at serious scale: it turned out graham crackers, savory crackers, and wafer cookies for decades before closing and being demolished in 2006. Buena Park started as an agricultural center at its 1953 incorporation, known for dairy, wine, and citrus, and food production stuck around even after the town grew into a commercial and retail suburb. A beverage and snack company is the city's third-largest employer today, with about 477 people on staff, and even the city's biggest employer grew out of a real berry farm and a fruit-preserves business.

That kind of cracker and cookie run is a textbook case for a Pack Series flow wrapper, which handles individual product at speed, paired with an automatic case packer that loads finished cases without added labor. Mars Series VFFS baggers cover the same ground for bagged snacks and baked goods, and we've helped food producers scale that exact kind of line, replacing manual case packing with automated equipment as volume grew past what a hand-packed line could handle. There's no PLAN IT plant sitting in Buena Park today, but the city's food-and-beverage history, from an old cracker plant to a beverage company still employing hundreds, lines up closely with what we build for across Southern California. If your line looks anything like the ones that used to run on Artesia Boulevard, we can spec the flow wrapper or case packer that keeps it moving.
