HVAC Manufacturer to Invest $50M in New Louisville Plant, Add 400 Jobs

LOUISVILLE, KY. — Kentuckiana Curb Co. Inc., which makes HVAC products and does business as KCC Manufacturing, plans to develop a 300,000-square-foot, $50 million facility in Louisville that will house corporate offices and manufacturing space. KCC acquired 20 undeveloped acres at 2706 Blankenbaker Road for the project, which is 14 miles east of downtown Louisville. The Kentucky Economic Development Finance Authority (KEDFA) will provide KCC with $6.5 million of tax incentives if the company adds 400 jobs over the next 10 years and pays an average hourly wage of $29 across those jobs, including benefits. Production at the new facility will include the design and manufacturing of HVAC equipment and sheet metal products. KCC currently houses 512 employees at its existing Louisville facility, which is located at 2716 Grassland Drive, two miles from the planned property. A timeline for construction was not disclosed.
