Milwaukee Tool, Brookfield, Wisconsin, has started construction on its newest facility in Grenada County, Mississippi.
The company’s latest expansion will accommodate its growing power tool accessories and power tool business and will also serve as a centralized repair facility. Milwaukee Tool’s new Mississippi facility will create more than 800 new jobs and is planned to open in mid-2023.
“We’re thrilled to, once again, expand our footprint in the state of Mississippi, where we’ve been able to recruit some of the best talent in the country,” says Steve Richman, Milwaukee Tool Group president. “Our success is the result of our talented people and the culture we’ve created; it is unparalleled in the industry. We are committed to investing in new talent and the right opportunities to continue meeting the needs of our distributor and user partners with the speed and agility that defines who we are as a company.”
Milwaukee Tool is investing more than $60 million into advanced technology and manufacturing equipment at its new 563,000-square-foot Mississippi facility. The facility will house critical accessory manufacturing capabilities and will join the company’s other service hub in Greenwood, Indiana, as one of its main axis points for service operations.
