Dayton Superior Creates 90 Jobs in Relocation to Braselton, Georgia

06/11/2010
Dayton Superior, a Dayton, Ohio-based producer of construction products, will relocate one of its leading manufacturing and distribution facilities to Braselton, Georgia. The company will create 90 jobs and invest $15 million in the Jackson County site. It plans to add another 50 jobs during its second year there.

"When we considered how to position our company for long-term growth, operations and location were a key factor," said Rick Zimmerman, Dayton Superior president and CEO. "We wanted a stronger manufacturing and distribution presence in the southeast, and our investment in the new Braselton facility in Jackson County was central to that strategy."

Georgia's Quick Start work force training program will prepare new employees for manufacturing positions at Dayton.

The new site has the space required to produce concrete accessories and chemicals. The company plans to use its distribution center to make it a one-stop shop for southeast construction businesses.
