Sennebogen Opening Plant in N.C.

Facility should be occupied by early next year.

Sennebogen North America has announced that it is opening a 48,000-square-foot distribution, training and technical support center in East Lincoln County, N.C. The capital investment on the project is $5.1 million.

To assist Sennebogen in building the facility, Lincoln County Commissioners approved an incentive grant of $17,895.15 per year over a five-year period.

"The support we have gotten from the Lincoln Economic Development Association played a major role in our decision to locate to Lincoln County. Barry Matherly did a fantastic job at finding the right location for us as well as helping with the decision making process. LEDA is by far the best development association in the region. Eastern Lincoln County offers a great connection to highways, the airport and infrastructure available in the region," said Constantino Lannes, president of Sennebogen North America.

"It’s been a pleasure working with Sennebogen and Mr. Lannes during the first stages of establishing their company in the eastern part of the county. It’s exciting to work with a company with such a strong vision of growth in the future," said, Crystal Gettys, existing business manager for the Lincoln Economic Development Association.

The company will be moving into roughly 30 acres, which gives the company additional land for expansion possibilities.

The company is expected to break ground on the facility very soon, and hopes to be in the location and operational by early next year.
