SIMPSON STRONG-TIE EXPANDING IN TENNESSEE

Simpson Strong-Tie will invest $110 million to expand its operations in Gallatin, Tn., by adding a new facility that allows the company to meet growing product demand and relocate a portion of its fastener manufacturing operations.

“This expansion more than doubles our current production capacity and footprint, enabling us to meet increased product demand and keep fastener manufacturing close to our North America customers,” said Mike Olosky, president and CEO. “The new site will also improve efficiency, help ensure we continue to provide exceptional customer service, and open up career opportunities for employees and job applicants alike.” 

Upon completion of the new facility, Simpson Strong-Tie will employ nearly 250 people across Tennessee.
