Nashville-based Loftis Steel & Aluminum is building a $6.5 million facility in Decatur.
The project will create 20 jobs in Limestone County.
Loftis Steel & Aluminum produces custom metal components for a wide range of applications.
“Loftis selected Decatur for our second base of operation due to its strategic proximity to our Nashville operations,” said Tom Russell, Loftis’ president and CEO. “It provides a springboard for us to more effectively service the ever-expanding North Alabama market.”
Loftis’ commitment to Decatur “highlights the strategic advantages of doing business in Alabama,” said Ellen McNair, secretary of the Alabama Department of Commerce. “This project brings together innovation, craftmanship and opportunity – all qualities that define our state’s manufacturing sector.”
