Major Investment Boost in Allegheny County: Expansion to Create New Job Opportunities
Allegheny County is set for a significant economic uplift following an announcement from Governor Josh Shapiro. Curtiss-Wright, a prominent player in the manufacturing sector, has pledged an $80 million investment to broaden its operations in Cheswick, Pennsylvania. This expansion will not only strengthen the company’s regional presence but also create 150 new jobs, promising a substantial boost to local employment and economic activity.
The state of Pennsylvania has committed over $1.2 million to support this multi-year expansion project. Governor Shapiro emphasized the importance of this development by stating, “This investment is a testament to the talent and potential of our workforce and the attractiveness of Pennsylvania as a great place to do business.” This move aligns with the Shapiro Administration’s broader economic strategy, which has successfully attracted over $41 billion in investments since taking office.
Located in Cheswick, Curtiss-Wright’s expansion will involve significant infrastructure improvements and facility enhancements. The company’s decision to expand in Allegheny County reflects confidence in the region’s potential and its workforce. This initiative is expected to have a ripple effect, benefiting local businesses and contributing to the area’s economic revitalization.
