New Developments
Custom shutter and window covering manufacturer American Homes Products recently announced consolidation plans that include moving corporate and manufacturing headquarters to Gainesville. The company plans to hire around 200 employees at the location on Palmour Drive in Gainesville, the building has been unoccupied since 2009. The 300,000 square foot facility will include 270,000 square feet of manufacturing space and 30,000 square feet of office space. America Homes expects to begin production late in 2015 with complete consolidation of its operations in 2016.
Path-Tec, a leading provider of specimen management solutions, announced in October 2015 that it is expanding into a new facility in Columbus and plans to hire 100 additional team members. The 126,000 square foot building is located on Old Brim Rd. in Muscogee Technology Park. The additional space will help the company's business of providing specimen management solutions that includes technology, kit development, production, distribution and logistics management.
New Jersey-based ADP, a business processing software company, recently announced that it will create 450 jobs and invest more than $20 million in an expansion in Augusta. The expansion will add 60,000 square feet to the existing building that currently employs more than 1,000. The newly created jobs will include management and non-management positions.
Linzer Products Corporation, a manufacturer of painting accessories, has announced plans to invest $4 million in Candler County to build a facility by 2016. This investment will create up to 200 new jobs. The new facility will be 222,000 square feet and house the company's manufacturing and distribution center, making it Linzer's largest operation in the United States. Linzer Products has been a
major manufacturer in the paint brush and roller industry since 1892. The company operates in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Claremont, NH, maintaining production facilities with warehouses of approximately 600,000 square feet. Linzer serves a wide range of customers through paint stores, hardware stores, home centers, and industrial distributors.
The Home Depot officially opened its new technology center in Marietta in October 2015. The 200,000 square foot facility will house 1,000 information technology associates. There are plans to eventually add around 500 more positions. The Home Depot is leasing the four-building campus on New Market Parkway near the corner of Cobb Parkway and Franklin Road. The company's headquarters is in nearby Vinings, Ga.
Retail technology firm Aptos Inc. has said it has chosen Buckhead in Atlanta as its international headquarters. The company creates cloud-based software which helps retailers improve efficiency and cost management. Aptos has leased more than 17,000 square feet of space at the Resurgens Plaza office tower in Buckhead. The company employs nearly 90 at its Atlanta headquarters, with plans to boost its local workforce by up to 20 percent soon. In the past two years, Aptos (formerly Epicor Retail Solutions) acquired retail analytics provider QuantiSense and e-commerce startup ShopVisible, both Atlanta-based.
Robins Air Force Base has announced plans to add 200 jobs across the base in Warner Robins. The positions to be filled are existing vacant positions that have been on hold due to budget cuts. The new positions are an addition to the 200 new aircraft maintainers that were previously announced.
