Our Maricopa factory, located just 40 miles southwest of Bakersfield, California, uses its radiating sunshine for drying clay during our mining operations—an innovative solution which has led to substantial reductions in the energy needs for our industrial dryers. We’re proud of our Maricopa factory which features one of North America’s most energy efficient industrial cogeneration systems powering nearly 82 percent of the plant’s electrical usage. For 50 years, brands like Tidy Cats® have combined the highest quality ingredients and science to even the most disposable products. Constant innovation and a safe work environment – years without a Lost Time Accident, in fact – are just a few of the reasons the average tenure for our associates is 10+ years, meaning you will be learning from leaders in the industry.
Associates at our Maricopa factory began learning ASL to better communicate with a new colleague who is hearing-impaired. We’re excited to see their efforts to make Nestlé Purina a more inclusive place to work. Through these opportunities to connect with one another and embrace other cultures, we build a stronger, more diverse workforce.
