12/18/2024
The new 150,000-square-foot facility will produce kitchen and bathroom cabinets for multifamily residential wholesale markets in North, Central, and South America.
“NexGen Cabinetry is pleased to announce our decision to locate our North Carolina assembly warehouse in Wallace North Carolina, Duplin County,” said Tom Boyda, COO of NexGen Cabinets. “Working with our partners in State, County & local government has given our company the ability to bring jobs and opportunity to the area. We look forward to long term growth as we become part of the community. On behalf of NexGen we thank North Carolina & Duplin County for the opportunity, and we look forward to many successful years in this community.”
To support the project a performance-based grant of $125,000 from the One North Carolina Fund awarded to NexGen Cabinets. The OneNC Fund provides financial assistance to local governments to help attract economic investment and to create jobs. Companies receive no money upfront and must meet job creation and capital investment targets to qualify for payment. All OneNC grants require a matching participation from local governments and any award is contingent upon that condition being met..
“North Carolina is the top choice for growing manufacturers across various industries,” noted N.C. Commerce Secretary Machelle Baker Sanders. “Among many things, our commitment to preparing the world-class workforce that global companies need, is the key differentiator that helps us win great economic development projects in every corner of the state.”.
In addition to the North Carolina Department of Commerce and the Economic Development Partnership of North Carolina (EDPNC), other partners in the project include the North Carolina General Assembly, North Carolina Community College System, James Sprunt Community College, North Carolina’s Southeast, Duplin County Board of Commissioners and Economic Development Commission, Duke Energy, and the Town of Wallace..
NexGen is a division of China-based Honsoar International Ltd, a manufacturer of kitchen and bathroom furniture with a production footprint in Malaysia, Vietnam, and Cambodia..
