Greenville Manufacturing Kentucky has announced plans to relocate to a new facility in Muhlenberg County, Kentucky. The company, a Floyd Holdings member company that manufactures equipment for the agriculture, forest products and biomass sectors, will invest $16.2 million into the project, creating 250 new jobs in the process.

Construction of the new facility is expected to be completed in November 2025. 

What people are saying

In a recent quote, Dane Floyd, CEO of Floyd Holdings, said, “This new facility was earned by the loyal, dedicated employees in Kentucky and the support of the community. “Our companies have experienced incredible growth, and we had to decide where to grow next. Starting almost from day one in Greenville, the outreach and support of local leaders like Judge McGehee and Ray Hagerman really reinforced what a great community we had been welcomed to. With great employees, forward-thinking local leaders, great training facilities and state support all the way to Gov. Beshear’s office, my decision was an easy one. I congratulate this community on receiving this investment and I look forward to further investment here as well. Thank you all for allowing us to be part of your great community.”

Governor Andy Beshear added, “Kentucky’s historic economic momentum comes thanks to the continued success within our key industries, including manufacturing. This investment will bring hundreds of high-quality, full-time job opportunities to families in Western Kentucky and will provide a substantial economic boost to the region. I am excited to see the company’s future success here in our New Kentucky Home.”
