The company will hire new employees in production, management, sales and logistics roles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The headquarters development marks the firm&#8217;s launch in North America. Construction is scheduled to start during the second half of this year, with operations expected to begin during the second half of 2027.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity has-very-light-gray-to-cyan-bluish-gray-gradient-background has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>READ ALSO<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/top-emerging-industrial-markets\/\">Emerging Industrial Markets<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity has-very-light-gray-to-cyan-bluish-gray-gradient-background has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>The company will host its operations and manufacturing activities at the new project, where there will also be a training facility. A partnership including Georgia Department of Economic Development, Macon-Bibb County Industrial Authority, Georgia EMC and Georgia Quick Start are developing the upcoming project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The project will be at the Airport South site in Macon, Ga. Adjacent to the Middle Georgia Regional Airport, the location is also known as Airport South Industrial Park. It is managed by Macon-Bibb County Industrial Authority and is a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/1b-manufacturing-plant-planned-in-tennessee\/\">major hub for advanced manufacturing<\/a>, logistics and aerospace industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ArcelorMittal Building Solutions operates as the dedicated <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/is-industrial-cre-benefiting-from-tariffs-and-reshoring\/\">construction and manufacturing<\/a> division of its global parent company, ArcelorMittal, a Luxembourg-based steel manufacturing multinational corporation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company has a long-standing presence in the U.S. It operates through its dedicated platform, ArcelorMittal North America, which has 10 locations, including two global research and development centers, and employs more than 19,000 people across the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-macon-s-recent-development-milestones\">Macon&#8217;s recent development milestones<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Among notable companies at Airport South is First Quality, which operates a manufacturing facility and is one of the largest employers in the city. Established in Macon since 2008, the company expanded its plant in 2024 in a $418 million financial move, set to increase its manufacturing capacity by 50 percent. The new First Quality facility is totaling more than 1 million square feet and sits on about 70 acres within the Airport South hub.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, the Middle Georgia Regional Airport is currently undergoing an expansion and renovation project, representing the most concentrated investment in its history. These upgrades total more than $85 million and include an extension of the main runway to accommodate larger aircrafts, new hangars and upgrades to the airport&#8217;s electrical vault. In October last year, construction began on another new addition at the airport. Officials broke ground on a new executive terminal, a 15,000-square-foot guitar-shaped facility scheduled to reach completion in 2027.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The steel manufacturer&#8217;s location will include a new corporate office, a manufacturing campus and a training facility. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2991,"featured_media":1004800723,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21782,21748,21783,21742,21747,32781],"tags":[52877,33471],"class_list":["post-1004800719","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-development","category-industrial","category-investment","category-latest","category-office","category-southeast","tag-arcelormittal","tag-georgia-department-of-economic-development"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.4 (Yoast SEO v24.6) -
