Campbell's to Close Cape Cod Potato Chips Factory in Hyannis This April

Campbell's cites low output as it consolidates Cape Cod chip production.

Overview

  • The Hyannis plant will cease operations in April 2026, ending 49 jobs tied to Cape Cod and Kettle Brand chip production.
  • Campbell's says the site produces about 4% of annual Cape Cod output and no longer makes economic sense to operate.
  • Production will be shifted to more modern facilities in Beloit, Wisconsin; Charlotte, North Carolina; and Hanover, Pennsylvania.
  • Impacted workers will receive separation benefits, job placement support, and guidance on accessing state assistance programs.
  • The company plans to sell the facility and continue local support through culinary workforce programs and Campbell’s Foundation community grants.
