The new 500,000 sq.-ft. facility will begin producing items such as the company’s SAWZALL Blades and plans to grow into additional products in the future.
Milwaukee Tool has opened the doors to its newest manufacturing facility located in Grenada County, Mississippi. It is Milwaukee Tool’s eighth location in the state and will employ over 800 people, the company said.
"Our rapid growth continues to accelerate, and this new facility in Grenada plays a crucial role in maintaining our trajectory of excellence in serving our distributor and user partners,” said Scott Griswold, group president of the Professional Accessories Business Unit at Milwaukee Tool. “This success is the direct result of recruiting some of the best talent around the nation, especially in the state of Mississippi. Our strong people and our unique culture are unlike anything else in the industry.”
The 500,000 sq.-ft. facility is the result of a $60 million investment, and will produce Milwaukee accessories such as the SAWZALL Blade line. The plant will grow into additional products over time as well.
With the new plant, Milwaukee Tool has invested over $250 million in Mississippi over the last five years.
