Company Need:
Vinylmax is in the midst of a five-year growth plan intended to grow annual revenue from approximately $50 million in annual revenue to $91 million in annual revenue. The growth will come from expanded sales territory, new product offerings, and diversification of our distribution model. The company is accommodating this new growth by adding a shift, but it will also require additional space.
Why Ohio?
Vinylmax had the option to expand production at an existing facility out of state and considered other options before finally choosing Hamilton for its expansion. The City of Hamilton and REDI Cincinnati worked with Vinylmax to make it the best location for investment. The company also attributes Hamilton’s ease of access to major transportation corridors and local talent as key drivers in its decision-making.
Ohio is home to a large and dynamic talent pool. The state ranks in the top 10 U.S. states for competitive labor environment and leading workforce development programs. Ohio is also a well-established base for companies moving goods around the globe, being just a one-day drive from more than 60 percent of U.S. and Canadian populations. Major cities, including Chicago, New York City, and Toronto, are easily accessible via air, rail, and road.
