The company will renovate its existing facility, adding production lines, new machinery and equipment.
“We are excited for the partnership and support from Governor Whitmer and the MEDC,” said the Bandit Management Committee. “We have plans to introduce a major new product later this year and have new products currently being designed to introduce in 2024. We would like to thank all the state leaders that help support manufacturing, we look forward to continuing to grow right here in Michigan.”
The project is being supported by a $360,000 Michigan Business Development Program performance-based grant from the Michigan Strategic Fund. In addition, Union Township has offered staff time and resources in support of the project.
“The decision by Bandit Industries to expand in Michigan underscores our state’s leadership in advanced manufacturing as well as the strength of our business climate and talented workforce,” noted MEDC Senior Vice President of Regional Prosperity Matt McCauley. “This project is a win for Central Michigan and for the entire state. We are grateful to Governor Whitmer, legislators from both parties, and local officials for their continued support for our programs that help make announcements like today’s possible. We appreciate the work of our local partners in supporting our efforts to create high-skill jobs for our residents, and will continue working to win projects, invest in places and support our people as we encourage businesses of all sizes to make it in Michigan.”
Headquartered in Broomfield Township, Michigan, Bandit Industries is a manufacturer and supplier of woodchippers, stump grinders, forestry mowers and waste reduction machines.
“Middle Michigan Development Corporation has worked closely with our friends at Bandit Industries for many years, and we are thrilled to see the company continue to succeed and expand,” added Middle Michigan Development Corporation President and CEO James McBryde. “Their new facility in Union Township will be a game-changer for the company and for the community. We look forward to sharing a very bright future with Bandit Industries.”
