Cassano said he expects to begin construction by mid-October.
Earlier this year Cassano said the expansion aimed at boosting local and national distribution was expected to add a handful of jobs. But business “is way up” since then, he said.
When completed, the 30-foot-tall freezer structure, the restaurant next door and the headquarters at the corner of East Stroop and Hempstead Station Drive will all be connected, he said.
Cassano’s, a mainstay in the Dayton area since the 1950s, has more than 30 restaurants throughout the region and employs more than 500 workers.
