Position Summary

Located in southeast Missouri, Bloomfield is a small town with rich history, and we are proud to call it home to one of our litter factories since 1976. Our factory in Bloomfield was the first to produce Lightweight® litter, a product that weighs half the amount of conventional litter, revolutionizing the pet care industry. An innovative feature of this factory is an overhead bridge that allows full pallets of finished products to be conveyed to the distribution center just north of the factory. This innovation, along with others, played a significant role in Nestlé Purina earning the Malcolm Baldrige Award, the highest level of national recognition for performance excellence that a U.S. organization can receive. Our factory also works to do our part to care for the environment, like conserving water, investing in renewable electricity, and maintaining zero waste for disposal. In 2020, our Bloomfield factory underwent a 110,000-square-foot expansion in processing and packaging, thanks to a $115 million investment. This expansion allowed Nestlé Purina to meet the growing demand from cat owners. With short commutes to St. Louis, Kansas City, and the Lake of the Ozarks, we enjoy day trips to popular attractions nearby and take pride in the great schools, local businesses, and tight-knit community that Bloomfield has to offer.
