Along with expanding its facility in Bessemer to five times its original size, Milo’s Tea Company is doubling down on making a difference in the lives of its employees and in the communities it serves.

Milo’s employees joined with community leaders to celebrate the unveiling of the expanded 15.5-acre headquarters Tuesday. The centerpiece of the property is a facility with 150,000 square feet of production, shipping and storage space. When it opened in Bessemer 15 years ago, the facility comprised 30,000 square feet on 3.5 acres.

Milo’s Tea is a family-owned business that brews and bottles fresh, all-natural beverages and ships them to 13,000 retailers in 42 states.“It’s very exciting to celebrate the growth of our facility,” said Tricia Wallwork, chief executive officer of Milo’s and the third-generation leader of the business. “Because of this investment, we can make over 230 gallons of tea a minute at this site and ship up to 90 tractor-trailers a day.”
