Jeni's closed all of its scoop shops after the discovery of listeria.

Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams plans to soon resume production, according to the company's Facebook page.

On Monday night, the Columbus-based company posted a picture of a conveyor belt on Facebook with the caption:

It's been a flurry of activity this past week in our production kitchen. We removed walls, set up foot foaming stations; we now have a conveyor belt! We examined and reworked every single process. Thanks to the team from around the country who made it work alongside the tireless army that is ‪#‎teamjenis. We plan to fire this baby up by the end of the week.

The company closed all of its stores and recalled all retail products after listeria was discovered in a random test in Nebraska.

The source of listeria was determined to be the spout of a machine that fills pints for retail sale.
