ELDON, Mo. (KMIZ)

Quaker Windows and Doors announced on Friday that it will invest more than $30 million to expand its Eldon manufacturing facility, according to a press release from the Missouri Department of Economic Development.

The release states that 220 new jobs are expected to be created. The new facilities are expected to be completed by the fall of 2025. The release says 300,000 square feet will be added to Quaker’s 450,000-foot campus. The facility was first completed in 2020 and has received three additions in four years, according to the release.

The latest expansion will add a vertical paint line and increased capabilities for insulation glass production, the release says.

According to the release, Quaker Windows and Doors will benefit from the Missouri Works program, a tool that helps companies expand and retain workers by providing access to capital through withholdings or tax credits for job creation.
