Two Aroostook County potato processors will benefit from a new state law that is meant to help foster expansion and job creation. The law, An Act to Promote Food Processing and Manufacturing Facility Expansion and Create Jobs, will provide tax credits to Aroostook potato processors starting this fall. The financial incentives will help cover a recent expansion at Penobscot McCrum, which added a new production line and 90 workers, and support the launch of the Taste of Maine Potato Chip Co. plant in Limestone, which will employ up to 100 people.
