Phoenix Manufacturing, an industrial manufacturing and fabrication company, announced today that it will expand in Glasgow, investing more than $1.1 million and creating 14 new jobs. The company’s expansion includes the addition of new equipment to enhance its quality initiatives and increase hiring.
“Phoenix Manufacturing’s growth is an example of the strength of our state’s robust manufacturing industry,” said Governor Mike Kehoe. “It’s always exciting to see Missouri companies investing and creating jobs in their communities. We look forward to Phoenix Manufacturing’s continued success in Glasgow.”
Phoenix Manufacturing began in aggregates and frac sand mining and now specializes in welded structures, material handling, bins, tanks, hoppers, structural steel, and more. As the company expanded and diversified its portfolio, it has engaged in a wide range of commodities, fabricated goods, and services. To support its ongoing growth, Phoenix Manufacturing is adding automated equipment to maintain quality and competitive pricing. The company has a deep bench of experience in Glasgow and approximately 125,000 square feet of fabrication and coating space.
“Our two-year, multimillion dollar investment in CNC equipment exemplifies our commitment to continued growth and efficiency,” said Mike Reilly, President of Phoenix Manufacturing. “This expansion also increases our stake in the community of Glasgow and the great state of Missouri, where the workforce is incredibly strong.”
As an AISC Certified Facility, Phoenix Manufacturing maintains a commitment to safety and quality driven by its seasoned workforce. Using Missouri talent, the company manufactures and ships projects nationwide, with recent examples including mineral processing facilities in Tennessee and Minnesota, pedestrian access at Niagara Falls, green energy storage piers in New York City, a custom subway station in Buffalo, New York, and more.
“DED is pleased to support Phoenix Manufacturing as the company creates new opportunities in Glasgow,” said Michelle Hataway, Director of the Department of Economic Development. “This expansion is yet another example of a local employer helping Missourians prosper through ongoing growth and job creation.”
New jobs added as part of Phoenix Manufacturing’s expansion will pay an average wage well above the county average.
The company currently has openings for trade labor leaders, quality control, welders, fitters, painting specialists, and machine operators. Potential applicants are encouraged to visit the company’s website.
For this expansion, Phoenix Manufacturing will benefit from the Missouri Works program, a tool that helps companies expand and retain workers by providing access to capital through withholdings or tax credits for job creation.
