Monroe, Ga. — Tucker Door & Trim, a distributor and manufacturer of doors, windows and specialty millwork, will invest $10 million and create 50 jobs at a new manufacturing and assembly plant for fiberboard and fiberglass door products in Henrico, Va.
The new facility is expected to open by April 1 to increase capacity and provide the company the ability to serve the northeastern market.
Founded in 1967, Tucker Door & Trim currently has about 360,000 square feet of manufacturing space at two facilities, one at the headquarters site in Monroe and the other in Albany, Ga.
Its products are delivered to wholesale customers throughout the Southeastern United States, including Georgia, Alabama, Florida, Tennessee, Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina.
"Our mission to become the premier choice for windows and doors and our growth plans made Virginia an ideal location for us," President Phil Odom said in a news release.
"This new location will offer us an unrivaled opportunity to serve new customers, grow and develop our team, and actively participate in our communities. We plan to bring the Tucker Door & Trim brand of service, product selection, and quality to Virginia with the same principles we have operated on for over 50 years."
Virginia successfully competed with Georgia for the project, the release said. The Virginia Economic Development Partnership worked with the Henrico Economic Development Authority and the Greater Richmond Partnership to secure the project for Virginia.
