Nappanee-based ATC, a manufacturer of aluminum RVs and trailers, has broken ground on a 221,000-square-foot facility that will be used for RV product operations. ATC says its current headquarters will be relocated to the new facility when construction wraps, and the expansion is expected to create up to 200 additional jobs.
“Over the past 20 years in this community we have experienced tremendous growth,” said Robert Paden, chief executive officer at ATC. “Investing in this facility allows us to continue hiring more talent and expand our capabilities and capacity to supply customers nationwide with efficiently produced, high-quality RVs and trailers.”
The manufacturer says the new facility will enable increased production and inventory for RV units and parts. The additional space will also accommodate ATC’s RV and trailer shipping logistics.
The facility will be designed to follow ATC’s manufacturing strategy, which involves producing RVs and trailers with pre-set features. ATC says its operational strategy has streamlined its manufacturing processes, creating dedicated production lines for rapid assembly of RVs and trailers.
ATC says the facility is scheduled for completion in early 2023.
