They might need some facilities, depending on who buys it, of course. Other companies will simply use their existing facilities and workers.
It could be that whoever owns it might part out the work to regional companies. Sort of the way Dr. Pepper is produced and distributed by Coke and Pepsi in different states (except Texas of course), even though its actually an independent company. (So is Big Red and it produces NONE of its own product).
I think that Little Debbie and BIMBO are two of the companies that might be interested in the trademarks and recipes.
Thanks for the explanation. I get it now.
I had no idea Sugarland, TX was named after a sugar company. One of my favorite movies is “The Sugarland Express.” It has nothing to do with sugar but takes place in the area.
