07/22/2024
The 44,000-square-foot warehouse, distribution center, and fleet repair shop will be located on an 8-acre site in the Washington County Industrial Park.
“Purcell has been an active member of the Washington County community for decades,” said Roger Lucas, CEO of Purcell Tire & Rubber Company. “We are excited about this new venture and we are excited about the prospect it brings for growth to the community and our employees. The collaboration and commitment between the teams to advance this project has been excellent and we want to extend our thanks to all those who made this possible.”
Purcell Tire will benefit from the Missouri Works program, a tool that helps companies expand and retain workers by providing access to capital through withholdings or tax credits for job creation.
“We’re proud to support Purcell Tire as the company continues helping Missourians prosper in Washington County,” noted Michelle Hataway, Director of the Department of Economic Development. “This expansion is a testament to the importance of development-ready industrial sites and another example of the value of collaboration with our partners.”
Purcell Tire & Rubber Company has five truck retread plants, two giant tire plants, four distribution centers, and offers pick-up and delivery services in 45 states. The company is the largest giant tire retreader in North America.
“We are thrilled to support the continued success and growth of Purcell Tire & Rubber Company,” added Jaclyn Rowe, Consulting Director of the Washington County Industrial Development Authority. “This new facility will not only enhance Purcell’s operations, but will also contribute to the economic vitality of Washington County.”
