Metal Panels Inc. To Open Manufacturing Center in Kansas City, Kansas
04/09/2013
“We were aware that the Kansas market was under served, and we’ve put a great deal of thought and effort into developing the best way to meet the needs of this market,” said Mitchell Hentkowski, president of Metal Panels Inc. “I believe the time is right to bring the services of MPI to Kansas.”
“I’m excited that Metal Panels is expanding to our state,” State Commerce Secretary Pat George said. “It’s great for Kansas job creation and economic growth when a company capitalizes on our strong business environment and decides to open operations here.” The new plant is designed to better serve and expand MPI’s seven-state customer base, Kansas economic development officials said.
“The opening of MPI’s new facility continues the momentum we have seen in the industrial sector in Wyandotte County and the overall positive business climate found in Kansas,” said Greg Kindle, president of the Wyandotte Economic Development Council. “We are excited about the jobs being created and look forward to working with MPI into the future as they grow their business.”
