Kubota Announces U.S. Expansion
Kubota Tractor Corp. (KTC) and Kubota Manufacturing of America Corp. (KMA) announce plans to increase production capacity in the U.S. The expansion includes a new manufacturing plant and expanding its existing operations in Gainesville, Ga. The company’s plan comes on the heels of Kubota Tractor Corp’s recent announcement— relocation of its U.S. headquarters to Grapevine, Tex.
The new Georgia plant location will be on 180 acres at Gateway Industrial Centre, in Gainesville-Hall County. The new building will be an estimated 502,000 sq. ft. The existing KMA facility will also undergo enhancements to increase its production capacity to support Kubota’s growing turf business.
Construction of the new facility in Gainesville will begin in September 2015 with a goal to begin mass production in spring of 2017. The new plant will manufacture Kubota’s RTV series utility vehicles, with the capacity to produce 50,000 units annually.
