Jeld-Wen Inc. plans to expand production at its plant in Randolph County, Alabama, creating up to 40 new jobs at the facility, officials announced this week.
The expansion at the Alabama facility stems from Jeld-Wen’s decision to move the assembly of patio doors from a number of Northern U.S. plants to Wedowee, according to reporting in the Yellowhammer News. The expansion will result in an estimated $25 million in sales revenue for the facility. The expected start of the additional assembly is Oct. 1, 2020.
