Nefab, a global provider of sustainable industrial packaging and logistics solutions, has opened its new Southeast Hub in Braselton, relocating from its previous site in Norcross. The $9.5 million investment triples the company’s footprint to 150,000 square feet. The additional space also allows for expanded production capacity and further investment in innovation.
The facility’s operations include the production of wood and plywood crates, corrugated packaging and foam cushioning, along with kitting capabilities to provide complete packaging solutions under one roof.
“This investment reflects both our confidence in the Southeast market and our commitment to building local capacity,” said Patric Vestlund, Executive Vice President – Americas, Nefab Group. “We designed this facility to combine global best practices with the speed and flexibility our customers need here in the US.”
By establishing this expanded site, company officials say they will be able to better serve customers throughout the Southeast. The Braselton facility will create 30 new manufacturing jobs, bringing the current headcount from 60 to 90, with further hiring planned as demand continues to grow.
“This site brings together our people, production, and technology in a way that helps us work more efficiently to support customer demand,” said Robert Skinner, Managing Director Southeast, Nefab Group. “Braselton’s strong logistics network and thriving business community make it an ideal base for our continued growth.”
