DAYTON, Ohio (AP) — A plant that brews molasses has some sweet economic news for southwest Ohio.
Dayton officials say Malt Products Corp. plans a new $26 million brewing plant. A local official says expansion with the new plant could mean 30 to 50 new jobs. The company has some 200 local employees now.
