This grant funded Orange County to meet the demand for services at the Piedmont Food and Processing Center (PFAP) in Hillsborough. PFAP nurtures and supports food and ag entrepreneurs, grows local businesses, and participates in state-wide efforts to grow the food and ag economy. Requested funds allowed PFAP to update and expand its existing freezer box capacity, offering more reliable cold-chain support to meet demand from clients. The expanded capacity resulted in users of PFAP receiving increased revenue from the sale of new and existing products.
