Plattsmouth Vireo Resources Expansion

“This is really just the beginning. Right now the equipment we are buying is for one new product line. We have space in our new facility for four lines. We’re incredibly excited to be growing here in Plattsmouth. There’s a lot of potential for the future.”

“These jobs represent wealth and disposable income that will come into Plattsmouth and contribute to our commercial activity, schools and housing. It’s the potential for almost three dozen people to not have to commute to work. It means a lot of good things for our community’s future.”

The City of Plattsmouth received $1 million in CDBG funding for working capital and equipment purchases benefitting the expansion of Vireo Resources’ operations in Nebraska.  Vireo is constructing a second 32,000 square foot facility alongside its existing plant for production of the supplement creatine.

Vireo’s expansion in Plattsmouth is expected to create 30 jobs with potential for further job development in the future.  Over half of the new jobs will benefit residents at or below area median income. Hiring will commence next spring with the facility established and in-use by May 2022.
