Mack Trucks will invest $14.5 million to expand its Roanoke Valley Operations (RVO) manufacturing facility in Virginia. The company will increase the current manufacturing facility by 72,000 square feet to prepare the plant for higher demand for its Mack? MD Series and Mack MD Electric vehicles. The project will create 51 jobs.
Mack Trucks is part of Swedish-based Volvo Group and one of North America’s leading producers of heavy-duty and medium-duty trucks.
“Mack is committed to making the industrial and product investments we need to be a North American market leader,” said Stephen Roy, global president of Mack Trucks. “The expansion of the Roanoke Valley operations plant will help us grow in a strategic market segment and support our sustainability goals.”
All Mack medium-duty models are produced at RVO. Mack launched the diesel-powered Mack MD Series in 2020 and launched the Mack MD Electric in March 2023. Adding the new model to the product lineup increased the need for more space at the facility.
The construction project — which will increase the size of the current facility to 352,000 square feet — will begin April 2024. It’s expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2025.
