Alliance Laundry Systems Buys Plant to Aid Expansion (250 jobs in Wisconsin)

RIPON, Wis. — Commercial laundry equipment manufacturer Alliance Laundry Systems reports it has closed on its purchase of the former Manitowoc (Wisconsin) Crane Company plant. The building covering more than 330,000 square feet will be used to help grow production at the Ripon facility.

Like many companies, Alliance says it has battled to fill openings amid a tight labor market and a particularly competitive Fox Valley area. In addition, the move will create up to 250 positions, helping boost the Manitowoc economy and re-open the now-shuttered plant.

The move is not intended to reduce positions in Ripon, Alliance says, as staff will be redeployed elsewhere in that facility.

Cost of the project, which also includes upgrades to the Ripon facility, is approximately $30 million.

$30 Million in JOBS? On, Wisconsin! :)

Oh, wait. We have a Socialist Governor these days and a Lt. Governor who has just been OUTED to NOT be the College Grad he has claimed to be! LIAR!

Look for this to die on the vine or for the two DOOFUSES in charge these days to claim it as a VICTORY through NO doing of their own.

The days of Wisconsin being a SUCCESSFUL state are on hold for a few years for the most part, but since the ball was already rolling, (Thank You, Scott Walker!) we just MIGHT make it through to the next election. ;)
