Elkhart, Ind.-based tube fabricator Marson International is expanding its operations. The company, which has more than doubled its team over the last five years, plans on creating up to 25 new Hoosier jobs by the end of 2023.
“The continued growth and expansion from companies like Marson demonstrates Indiana’s positive economic momentum and strong workforce pipeline,” said Indiana Secretary of Commerce Jim Schellinger. “It’s exciting to see another Indiana-grown company expanding and thriving right here in their home state, even in the midst of challenging times. We look forward to supporting their success for years to come.”
Marson will invest $2 million to expand its Elkhart manufacturing operations, installing new machinery to ramp up production and improve operational efficiencies. The enhanced facility will also allow Marson to meet increased demand across the U.S. for its tubing fabrication services, which range from rapid prototyping, including low- and mid-volume production, to high-volume runs requiring manufacturing cells.
Founded in 2002, Marson operates three locations in Elkhart and employs approximately 95 people there. It’s currently hiring for positions in engineering, sales and production. Interested applicants may send resumes to employment@marsonintl.com.
“We’re excited to deepen our roots in Indiana and make this investment in the Elkhart community,” said Jason Newburn, founder and vice president of Marson. “This investment will allow us to increase our production and increase our offerings to customers. With Indiana being a manufacturing-focused state with a highly skilled workforce, this couldn’t be a better location for us to continue to grow.”
The Indiana Economic Development Corporation offered Marson International LLC up to $125,000 in conditional tax credits based on the company’s planned capital investment in Indiana. These tax credits are performance-based, meaning the company is eligible to claim incentives once investments are made. The city of Elkhart supports the project at the request of the Economic Development Corporation of Elkhart County.
