Stellar, a fully integrated firm focused on design, engineering, construction and mechanical services worldwide, has published a new e-book about recent tax reform, capital expenditures and the current state of the food industry — and what it all means for food and beverage manufacturers.

The e-book, titled “Cuts, Credits and Write-offs: How Food and Beverage Manufacturers Can Leverage the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017,” explores why now is an ideal time for these companies to invest in capital improvements.

Topics covered in the resource include:

  • New cost-saving provisions in the tax code
  • Investment tips from tax experts 
  • Smart ways to invest in your facility for long-term growth
  • The fastest, most efficient approach to build a new facility or renovate an existing one 

“This is truly a unique time in the food and beverage industry,” said Todd Allsup, vice president of sales for Stellar’s Food Group. “Speed-to-market is more important than ever, consumer demand is ever-evolving, mergers and acquisitions are on the rise, and disruptive innovation is changing the industry landscape. This e-book is a great tool for helping companies take advantage of this ideal time for capital investment.”

Stellar teamed up with the tax experts at RSM to produce the e-book. RSM US LLP is the U.S. member of RSM International, a global network of independent audit, tax and consulting firms with more than 43,000 people in over 120 countries.
