The Smarties candy factory in Union, N.J., makes a lot of candy: 12,000 of the sweet little tablets are processed per minute, and up to 120,000 pounds of candy are processed per day, making 4.5 million rolls. In a year, the factory produces more than 2 billion rolls of Smarties. But behind all of that candy and all of that machinery are people.
Meet Isonia Serrano. A shift lead who arrives at the factory early in the morning to start the machinery, she’s been working at Smarties for more than 30 years. It’s where she says she’s learned a lot, and it’s also where she met her husband, Edwin Duarte, who also works there as a mechanic.
“On the Job With Priya Krishna” is a series about labor and the people who shape what we eat and how we eat, and whose jobs often go unseen. In this episode, Priya follows Isonia and Edwin as they ensure the factory’s operations run smoothly.
