The people behind one of Loring Commerce Center’s major new developments plan to begin construction by late July 2024. Taste of Maine Potato Chip Co., based in Presque Isle, held a kickoff event on the Loring campus Wednesday to celebrate its future $55 million potato chip processing plant. The company is the vision of Falcon Transportation owner Bruce Sargent and colleagues, who hope to be part of revitalizing the former Loring Air Force Base. The base closed almost 30 years ago, in September 1994.
