Hostess Brands, a new company and employer under new ownership, is set to resume operations at four bakery facilities in the next eight to ten weeks.
The new owner of Hostess is set to reopen the plants in Columbus, Georgia; Emporia, Kansas; Schiller Park, Illinois; and Indianapolis, Indiana.
The investment in these facilities is being funded by the affiliates of Apollo Global Management and Metropoulos Co, which acquired selected Hostess assets out of bankruptcy this month.
