Kenworth will increase the size its Chillicothe, Ohio, manufacturing plant by nearly 25 percent once a new paint facility comes online in early 2021, the company said at a groundbreaking for the new building on April 24, 2019. The $140-million, 120,000-square-foot building will sit adjacent to Kenworth’s 502,000-square-foot Class 8 truck manufacturing plant. The new paint facility is expected to add about 100 jobs to the facility.
“The critical role Chillicothe plays in Kenworth’s market share is highlighted by the continued investments, like our $30 million investment in the automated cab assembly this summer [and the paint facility],” said Mike Dozier, PACCAR (NASDAQ: PCAR) vice president and Kenworth general manager.
