Avery Barron Industries (ABI), a maker of precision steel and machine parts for several industries, is creating 108 jobs in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The company will participate in the Oklahoma Quality Jobs Program to assist in the expansion.

"Our ability to attract and hire quality employees will be a key to our success," said ABI President and CEO Bruce Barron. "The Quality Jobs Program provides tax incentives, which help ABI stay competitive and continue to grow."

ABI executives said they selected Tulsa due to the existing industry and work force. The new jobs are expected to have an $81 million in the Tulsa area.
