American Weatherstar opens new manufacturing facility in Alabama
Irvington, AL – American Weatherstar officially opened its new 10,500 square foot manufacturing facility in Irvington, Alabama.
“We moved here right before the pandemic kicked off. As a matter of fact, we moved here right before everything shut down in Mobile County. And it’s been a daunting couple of years there preparing for this. It definitely delayed the opening of this building. But it’s been a long road and an exciting day for everybody in the company,” President Brian O’Donnell said.
Last year, they blended about “200 thousand gallons of product in their existing plant.” But they knew a bigger facility was needed. And a bigger facility means the potential for more product. And the potential for more employees.
“We’re always hiring. We’re still looking today. We’re trying to grow every day. We’ve got more positions. Everyone’s income here potentially grows because of our ability to blend more product here versus procuring it from outside,” O’Donnell said.
