Emerson Process Management Undertakes A $9.5 Million Expansion At Its Houston, Texas, Production Facility
05/09/2013
As an incentive, Gov. Rick Perry’s Office said the state is providing $1 million through the Texas Enterprise Fund to close the deal on this project. "From small businesses to major multinational corporations like Emerson, employers know Texas offers them the best chance at success through our low taxes, predictable regulations, lawsuit abuse reforms and skilled workforce," Gov. Perry said. "Emerson's expansion is great news for hardworking Texans and the city of Houston."
The Texas Enterprise Fund is supporting the next phase of growth for Emerson Process Management's new Americas headquarters for valve automation technology and its new manufacturing facility that currently employs 175. This facility serves as a center of excellence for valve automation engineering and manufacturing expertise, while providing a showroom where customers can work directly with Emerson employees to develop solutions and improve products.
"We are thrilled to expand our footprint in the Houston community," David Plum, president of Emerson Process Management's valve automation business, said. "Our history in Texas dates back to 1929 and this area remains critical to our growth plans and service level commitments."
"The Greater Houston Partnership congratulates Emerson Process Management on the opening of its valve automation Americas headquarters in Houston, as well as the expansion of its new state-of-the-art manufacturing and distribution facility," Greater Houston Partnership President and CEO Bob Harvey said. "With its more than 1,000 employees in Houston, Emerson is a key partner in strengthening our region's extraordinarily-dynamic growth and quality of life. GHP is proud to partner with Emerson and other national and international companies in creating high-paying jobs, a skilled workforce and economic prosperity for Houston."
