AirGuide Opens Clarksdale, Mississippi, Manufacturing Plant
08/16/2013
“From Clarksdale, AirGuide will manufacture a variety of industry leading products for the HVAC industry and energy efficient lighting products. In addition, AirGuide has ownership in multiple companies that will also occupy space in this facility. American Green Technology will produce energy-efficient induction lighting fixtures here, and the Arcalux Health Risk Management System and Smart Fixture, which helps save lives by removing pathogens known to cause infections from hospitals, will also be manufactured here,” said Doug Marty, CEO of AirGuide Manufacturing. “We are very excited to see this project come together and we are looking forward to helping to improve the economies in Clarksdale, Coahoma County and the State of Mississippi.”
“The grand opening today of AirGuide is great news for Clarksdale and the Mississippi Delta as our state continues to grow its manufacturing sector,” Gov. Phil Bryant said. “The opening of this facility and the jobs being created here will have a positive effect on the local community and economy for years to come. I wish the AirGuide team many years of success in Mississippi.”
The Mississippi Development Authority provided assistance for improvements to the publicly-owned building AirGuide occupies, as well as assistance to relocate equipment to the facility. Coahoma County also provided assistance for the project.
“It is always exciting to see a project such as AirGuide come together, and we congratulate the company and its employees on this milestone event,” said MDA Executive Director Brent Christensen. “MDA appreciates the team at AirGuide for selecting the Mississippi Delta for these operations and the creation of these new jobs. We thank our partners in Coahoma County who worked with us to bring this project to fruition.”
