The company’s new expansion project is expected to create 49 new jobs in Madison County, bringing the total number of jobs at the facility to nearly 150, according to a press release by the Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development (TNECD).

The expansion project will allow Pace Industries to “better serve its growing customer demand for aluminum, zinc and magnesium die casting,” TNECD notes.
