A Ben Hill County business broke ground on Monday on an expansion that will create 30 new jobs.

Protein Plus is building an additional production facility in Fitzgerald. The firm makes various peanut protein powders and flours.

The company's president said that increased sales and business success led the company to construct the 25,000 square foot building.

The new facility is expected to be up and running by November of 2017.
