“Indiana’s pro-growth business climate and skilled workforce continue to attract investment from all over the country and around the world,” said Governor Eric J. Holcomb. “It’s an exciting day as we celebrate Midwest Truck’s decision to fuel its growth in Indiana, and I’m so grateful for the company’s commitment to increasing its footprint and creating quality career opportunities in northwest Indiana.”
Midwest Truck, which has locations in California, Georgia, Illinois, North Carolina and Texas, will occupy a 125,000-square-foot facility at the AmeriPlex at the Crossroads Business Park in Merrillville. The new facility will allow the company to enhance efficiencies and meet growing demand for its products, the company says. Midwest Truck plans to be fully operational in Indiana in 2021.
“With more than 70 years in the industry and 180 employees across the country, our company is looking to the future, advancing quality products and services, becoming more flexible to meet customer demand and expectations. As we explored options to better serve our customers, Indiana’s friendly business climate and Merrillville’s location resonated with us as the ideal place for our expanded operations,” said Michael Chudacoff, Midwest Truck business development manager.
