"Our rapid growth continues to accelerate, and this new facility in Grenada plays a crucial role in maintaining our trajectory of excellence in serving our distributor and user partners,” said Scott Griswold, group president of the professional accessories business unit at Milwaukee Tool, in a press release. “This success is the direct result of recruiting some of the best talent around the nation, especially in the state of Mississippi. Our strong people and our unique culture are unlike anything else in the industry.”

Milwaukee Tool invested more than $60 million in the facility, which is more than 500,000 square feet in size. Equipped with state-of-the-art technology and manufacturing capabilities, the Grenada location will initially produce Milwaukee’s line of accessories, including Sawzall blades, and will expand into additional products over time, the press release said.

Milwaukee Tool, celebrating its 100th anniversary this year, has seen double-digit growth every year for more than a decade, the press release said. With a workforce of over 10,000 in the U.S. alone, the company has expanded its footprint both domestically and globally, driven by consistent growth.

In Mississippi, Milwaukee Tool has invested more than $250 million over the last five years and employs more than 4,000 people.
