Groundbreaking ceremonies at Amesbury's Statesville plant. |
Rich Gustin, general manager at the textile plant, credits a dedicated work force as key to bringing the expansion to Statesville. "Through their efforts, we have earned this opportunity for growth," he says. "I am proud of our people and our accomplishments and am excited about the bright future this growth will present to us."
A groundbreaking ceremony for the new facility was held in mid-August. The North Carolina plant currently employs about 90 people. Amesbury plans to add 36 people with the expansion.
Amesbury Group was acquired by Lupus Capital plc of London, England this spring. The British company previously owned Schlegel Systems, another North American supplier of weatherseal products, which is now under the Amesbury umbrella.
