Utz Announces Investments in Hanover Campus
Utz Brands, Inc. is excited to announce a series of strategic investments to our Hanover campus. Over the coming months, we will begin a multi-phase project aimed at upgrading several Utz Hanover facilities. Utz has been proud to call Hanover our headquarters for over 100 years, and we’re pleased to share that the work that began with the opening of the Rice Distribution Center last year was only the beginning of our investments in the Hanover area.
Construction will begin in 2026 to upgrade our headquarters at 900 High Street and transform it into a modern Utz Employee Hub. Teams working across the Hanover campus will be moved to the Utz Employee Hub where they will work in a collaborative and integrated workspace, with upgraded technology and modern, flexible offices, workspaces, and meeting rooms.
Our Carlisle Street Plant 1 location will continue to house the Utz Outlet Store, the iconic Utz sign and our community pavilion. We have plans to create a modern Utz Community Center on this site in the future. As part of these changes, we will be consolidating operations and putting our buildings at 1040 High Street and 350 Kindig Lane up for sale.
Thank you for your continued partnership and support of Utz throughout this transition. We look forward to continuing to work together to support and grow the Hanover community.
