Description
Maxwell House Coffee Plant 3, Jacksonville, Fl.
Maxwell House opened in Jacksonville in 1910 as the Cheek-Neal Coffee Co. along Bay Street, across from the existing plant that was built in 1924. The original building was demolished. It has grown to a 400,000-square-foot plant. Raw coffee beans arrive in Jacksonville by ship and are sent to a Westside facility for cleaning and blending before being brought to the plant for roasting, grinding and packing. The product is then transferred to a Westside warehouse for distribution. It celebrated 100 years in 2010.
