 The University of Idaho Food Technology Center is a
7000 ft2 certified food processing facility located in Caldwell, Idaho,
adjacent to the University of Idaho Business and
Technology Incubator.
Originally designed as a specialty foods co-packing
operation, the FTC has been converted into a multi-purpose food production
facility to serve the needs of a large variety of food processing needs. A
portion of the facility is available for rent to individuals or companies
that wish to produce their own specialty foods in a certified commercial
kitchen. However, the remaining space had been converted into a pilot plant to assist established companies with
contract R&D, GLP food processing studies and food quality and safety
analysis.
The mission of the UI Food Technology Center is to
provide a multi-use facility where individuals and food companies can receive
comprehensive business, technical and educational assistance to develop or
improve their
food business.
