Laticrete, a manufacturer of construction solutions for the building industry, recently broke ground to expand its manufacturing and distribution facility in Grand Prairie, Texas. Construction of the 70,000-square-foot addition to the existing 100,000-squarefoot facility is expected to be completed in spring 2017. It is the company’s largest manufacturing and distribution center outside of the Laticrete headquarters in Bethany, Connecticut. The facility manufactures a wide array of products for the construction industry, employs a staff of more than 30 and recently added a third shift to meet steadily increasing demand. The Grand Prairie facility services customers in the Texas sales region and serves as a national and international distribution hub for Laticrete. The expanded space will be used immediately for warehousing and will position the facility to meet potential future manufacturing needs. The plant expansion coincides with a period of unprecedented growth for the family-owned and privately held Laticrete. Over the past three years the company has acquired three companies and expanded the product lines it offers. Laticrete also recently completed an expansion of a similar facility in Pottstown, Pennsylvania, which serves the northeastern U.S. sales region.
