place to work. We were still very busy hiring for our initial
production needs. The expansion will require an additional 400
employees. The majority of our hiring will be for production
technicians, but there are immediate needs for supervisors,
engineers, and many other roles," he added. Greenville is located
approximately 35 miles northeast of Grand Rapids. Candidates
