the San Leandro, Calif., plant in 1981
This was the ninth Kellogg cereal
plant when it opened in July 1952
to "speedily serve the West Coast."
Approximately 250 people joined the
new plant that year, at an average
wage of $1.52 per hour, to help the
company produce Kellogg's Corn
Flakes® , Rice Krispies® and Kellogg's
Raisin Bran®. |

opened a plant in Omaha in 1943
at 26th Street and then moved to
its current location in April 1965.
Today's plant produces more
than 1 million pounds of product daily. |
