A maker of waffle products is opening a $35 million, 147,000-square-foot manufacturing and warehouse facility in Hazelwood.

Marson Foods, based in Carson City, Nevada, will lease the space at 1590 Tradeport Drive in the Hazelwood TradePort industrial park, which is owned by Kansas City-based NorthPoint Development, the company said in a news release.

The company said the investment will create 45 to 53 jobs, at an average annual salary of $112,400. The production facility is expected to open in the fourth quarter this year in the 325-acre industrial park, which opened in 2018 near the now-closed St. Louis Outlet Mall.
