Roseville, MN, June 22, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Hawkins, Inc. (Nasdaq: HWKN), a leading specialty chemical company, today announced that it has completed a capital investment in its Minneapolis, MN facility to drive further growth in its pharmaceutical ingredient business. The total overall investment of approximately $5 million included automation capabilities and additional storage for raw materials and finished goods.
