DAWN'S DALLAS DISTRIBUTION CENTER ON THE MOVE

JACKSON, MI (April 4, 2003) – Dawn Food Products, Inc. is pleased to announce the recent move of its Dallas distribution center to a new location just one mile from its previous 35,000-square-foot facility on Chartwell Drive in Dallas.

The new 80,000-square-foot building, located at 3353 Miller Park South #100 in Garland, Texas, will help Dawn better serve its customers in northern Texas and Louisiana, as well as Oklahoma. Dawn currently serves these markets with the highest quality dry mix, frozen and refrigerated bakery products in the industry.

“The new location will certainly allow us to expand our distribution reach,” said Richard Hagwood, general manager of the facility. “And since the proximity of the new building was so close, we were able to make the move with ease,” said Hagwood.

2003 marks the 13th year of operation in the Dallas market for Dawn, which occupied its previous facility since 1990.

Dawn currently operates 28 state-of-the-art manufacturing plants and distribution facilities throughout the United States, serving bakery retail, in-store, wholesale and food service operations.
