Garden Grove is home to a tofu producer running since 1983, an instant-noodle maker in business since 1978, and a contract packager running nearly every format PLAN IT builds for, all inside one Orange County zip code.
Garden Grove is home to a tofu producer running since 1983, an instant-noodle maker in business since 1978, and a contract packager running nearly every format PLAN IT builds for, all inside one Orange County zip code.
Garden Grove needs packaging equipment sized for three very different production lines. A tofu producer on Orangewood Avenue has made and packaged tofu in Garden Grove since 1983 and has said publicly it is stepping up production to meet growing demand, meaning more product moving through weighing, filling, and sealing stations than the plant ran a decade ago. A few miles away, an instant-noodle maker has produced bag and cup noodles for the US and Canadian markets from a Monarch Street facility since 1978, running two distinct packaging formats side by side. And a contract packager founded in 1973, with more than a thousand employees, runs VFFS pouching, stick pack, liquid and powder filling, flow wrapping, and club-store packaging under one Garden Grove roof, a working list of the machine categories local food producers need.
PLAN IT builds for exactly this mix. Tofu production calls for EliteWeigh multihead weighing and tray or tub filling, backed by checkweighing and case packing to keep portioned product moving at retail speed; instant noodles call for the same tooling in reverse, since bag and cup formats each need their own setup on a Mars Series VFFS bagger or Pack Series flow wrapper without a slow changeover. You know tofu and instant noodles; we keep EliteWeigh and Mars Series lines running side by side, each without slowing the other. A contract packager already running pouching, stick pack, and flow-wrap lines in-house is close to a mirror of PLAN IT's own equipment list, and case packers on the back end move finished product into cartons at the volume a growing plant needs. Garden Grove's tofu maker, noodle maker, and contract packager, not a PLAN IT branch, are why this equipment matters here; all three draw on the consultative service, integration support, and in-stock machines behind PLAN IT's California accounts, sized for a plant that can't wait on a build slot.
