Ham, roast beef, sausage, and hot dogs move out of a 100,000-square-foot meat-processing plant in Philadelphia's Wissinoming neighborhood at a rate of about 100 million pounds a year, produced by a family-owned company that has called the city home since 1939. We build packaging automation for production at exactly this volume. A few miles away, at the Philadelphia Navy Yard, a bakery that relocated its headquarters and main bakery to that Navy Yard site in 2010 turns out snack cakes, pies, honey buns, and donuts. Food processing sits alongside higher education, health care, and financial services as one of Philadelphia's core economic sectors, a mix covered in more depth on our food and beverage page.
That volume calls for machines built to run all day without drift or downtime. You know deli meat and snack cakes. Our lines form and case them at the volume this city's meat and bakery plants run every day. Our Mars Series VFFS baggers, shown in full on our VFFS page, form and fill bags for snack cakes, baked goods, and other packaged food, and our automatic case packers, detailed on our case-packer page, carton deli meat and bakery product alike for palletized shipping. Our Pennsylvania page covers the region in full, and our solutions page walks through what a project looks like from that first quote to a line turning out finished product. PLAN IT has no office in Philadelphia, but its meat processors and bakeries run our equipment daily, and our service team answers when they call.
