Bosch expanding Noble County manufacturing plant

ALBION, Ind. (Inside INdiana Business) — A Michigan-based technology services provider has announced plans to grow its Noble County operations. Bosch says it will invest nearly $6 million to expand its facility in Albion to accommodate additional manufacturing equipment and warehousing space, as well as add 16 jobs.

The company says the project will add more than 100,000 square feet of space to the facility, for a total of 264,200 square feet.

“The planned expansion will enable us to serve even more customers with products that play a key role in the vehicles of today and tomorrow,” said Dan Gallo, plant manager for Bosch in Albion. “This expansion is a validation of the continued hard work and dedication of our team in Albion.”

The Albion facility manufactures engine cooling fans, pumps and valves for the company’s Mobility Solutions business unit and currently employs more than 280 workers.

Work on the project is expected to be complete by June 2021.

The Indiana Economic Development Corp. has offered Bosch up to $200,000 in conditional tax credits, which the company will not be eligible to claim until Hoosier workers are hired for the new jobs.
