JUPITER BACH EXPANDS PENSACOLA WIN TURBINE PRODUCTION

A Pensacola manufacturing facility is celebrating their growth. Jupiter Bach North America recently cut the ribbon on a 22,000 square foot addition. They now have more than 105,000 square feet dedicated to making parts for wind turbines. General manager Sean Guidry says it's a strategic expansion that's designed to accommodate growing customer demand. He says it can also been seen as an investment in their employees. They have 250 workers, with room now for up to 400. Guidry says around half of all wind turbines in the United States were manufactured in the Pensacola area.
