Balchem Corporation has been a part of the community in Covington and Alleghany County, Virginia since 2013, when they opened their first facility here. And thanks to the benefits that this Right to Work state provides, the company is able to continue to grow. As a result, they are now planning an expansion with a $5 million investment. This will help them to double their current production rate and further their customer reach around the world. In addition, they plan to create 6 new jobs over the next couple of years. So this will be a great opportunity for the community, especially those looking for jobs.

From Area Development Magazine:

“We are very excited about the expansion at our Covington site. […] This is not only an opportunity to bring more jobs to the area, but it also allows us to further expand our manufacturing capabilities and meet the growing needs of the Animal Nutrition and Health markets.†[…]

“We’re pleased to see Balchem expanding and enjoying success in Alleghany County. […] Advanced manufacturing is a target industry in the Commonwealth that will play an important role in Virginia’s economic recovery, and we thank the company for reinvesting in its operation and creating more high-quality jobs.â€AREA DEVELOPMENT MAGAZINE
