In the early 2000's, another expansion was completed to add production capacity and improve product flow. Six hand-kettle cookers, a state-of-the-industry potato peeling system, distribution and transfer conveyors, and a new seasoning system were installed. Snack Food and Wholesale Bakery magazine named Shearer's "Snack Manufacturer of the Year". We purchased 33 acres next to our current location, giving the company 77 acres in total.
