We shared with you earlier this week that the parent company of Iowa Premium in Tama would be expanding that facility, adding several hundred new jobs at a price tag of over 100 million dollars.

Katherine Ollendieck is Executive Director of Tama County Economic Development. She says this exciting news will hopefully help in many areas, but especially in the County’s critical need for housing.

Ollendieck says Iowa Premium offers good paying jobs, with diversity and opportunity and has really stepped up to the plate to assist the county, not only during the pandemic, but post derecho as well.
