Company Need:
Goyette is looking to expand its footprint in the region by adding a secondary headquarters to support its customers’ projects throughout Ohio and neighboring states. An established operation in Ohio will improve Goyette’s relationship with local unions, which will provide plumbers, welders, pipefitters, and HVAC workers. The new facility would serve as a permanent location for growth, putting Goyette close to its customers.
Why Ohio?
The investment in a secondary headquarters will help Goyette retain its proven workforce and build additional capacity available from local talent. This expansion will support local projects in and around the Columbus area as well as projects in Missouri, Pennsylvania, and Tennessee.
