Generac Power Systems:

Generac Power Systems is investing over $8 million in order to expand in Right to Work Pewaukee, Wisconsin. This will also bring their employee total to 300.

“Generac has experienced tremendous growth over the past decade as the combination of an aging grid and extreme weather are resulting in more frequent and longer lasting power outages, and that success has only intensified over the last 18 months with more people needing backup power at home where they’re doing everything from working to learning to shopping.†[…]

“As we continue to add employees to serve our customers and support our rapidly evolving business, we have outgrown our current headquarters facility in Waukesha. Expanding to this new location will allow us to continue to grow Generac to serve our customers, partners and our people, as we work to meet the incredible market demand.†
