Ferrara Candy Company is opening a very large distribution center in Dekalb. There will be a ton of available jobs, and perhaps, some delicious fringe benefits.
Ferrara makes Sweet Tarts, Fun Dip and Nerds and they're building a 1.6 million-square-foot distribution complex, just south of the DeKalb Oasis near I-88.
And according to wifr.com, once the facility is open in 2021, they will be looking to fill 500 job positions.
