Legacy Manufacturing, the maker of Flexzilla water and air hoses, is building a $10.4 million facility to consolidate its operations and double its capacity. The 133,000-square-foot building will be located in Marion, Iowa (the same as its current facility), where the company has done business for over 20 years.

According to Matt Weems, VP, Legacy Manufacturing, there are two main factors driving the company’s decision to build. “We have outgrown our current facility and operate out of several locations. We need the space to increase our efficiencies and support continued growth for the future. This new building helps us to supply our customers at an even higher service level.” Also impacting the decision is Legacy’s goal to re-shore more of their products. The company expects to move into the new facility during the first quarter of 2016.

While Weems says Legacy products are available in the U.S. and Canada through multiple market channels, there are opportunities for considerable growth in many others. “We are projecting significant growth in the next five years,” says Weems.
