Pella Corp. selected Troy, Ohio, as the location for its new manufacturing facility. Pella will occupy an existing 324,000-square-foot space where it will house the production of vinyl windows and doors. The new manufacturing facility will serve customers in the Eastern region of the U.S.
"We are excited about the growth opportunity that vinyl products represent. This new facility allows Pella to increase our production capacity and shorten lead times for our valued retail and trade customers in the region," says Tim Yaggi, CEO, Pella.
The facility is planning to create 428 new jobs once it's fully operational by 2025. The project was made possible through strong partnerships with Jobs Ohio, Dayton Development Coalition, Troy Development Council and Ohio Development Services Agency.
"Troy, Ohio, is a great fit for Pella Corporation. It offers a rich heritage in manufacturing, as well as a skilled and available workforce. It's clear that economic development is a top priority for the city, and we appreciate the partnership created between Pella, the City of Troy and the State of Ohio," says Yaggi.
"The City of Troy is thrilled to be able to welcome Pella Corporation to our city," says Robin Oda, City of Troy mayor. "This has been a long process of effort and cooperation between the City of Troy, Pella, the Troy Development Council, the Dayton Development Coalition and Jobs Ohio, to make this happen. The creation of over 400 new jobs in Troy is an amazing thing for our community and our county. We look forward to Pella calling Troy home!"
