Ground Force now a global force
The growth of Ground Force Manufacturing LLC, a Post Falls company that converts large truck chassis into giant support vehicles for even bigger mining vehicles, is mirroring that of fast-growing regions of the world that are starved for commodities.
The company, which currently contracts with 25 additional workers because it’s struggling to find full-time workers, expects to break ground soon on another manufacturing facility that will add 25,000 square feet of space to the 50,000 square feet it currently occupies at its six-building, 6-acre complex along east Seltice Way, owner Ron Nilson says. That project, which will take six months to complete, will provide only a temporary solution to the company’s growing needs. It’s still looking to buy land nearby on which to build a 100,000-square-foot facility within the next three years, he says.
