JLG to Expand Telehandler Production Capacity in Tennessee
JLG Industries, Inc. is expanding its manufacturing footprint at the 500,000-square-foot Oshkosh facility in Jefferson City, Tennessee. This move supports increased production of the SkyTrak telehandler line and advances JLG toward its target of adding strategic production capacity to enable accelerated growth into the agriculture sector and expand the company’s mobile elevating work platform volume at its Pennsylvania facilities.
“Telehandler demand continues to grow,” said Frank Nerenhausen, Oshkosh Corporation executive vice president and president of JLG Industries. “We will invest approximately $120 million in our Tennessee facility over the next two years to increase SkyTrak manufacturing by at least 50 percent. Growing our operational capacity in Jefferson City will enable a ramp-up in production to meet the needs of our customers today and into the future.”
