Kubota Manufacturing completed production of its one millionth unit in the U.S. at its facility in Gainesville, GA. The milestone comes just over 20 years since the company began production of wheeled products in 1994.

“For more than a quarter century, Kubota has been experiencing tremendous growth in the U.S., creating many new jobs as we expand our product offerings,” said Hironobu Kubota, president of Kubota. “When we first began production here, we had less than 100 employees and today we’ve grown to more than 2,300 manufacturing-related jobs in the state. We are very proud of this growth because it demonstrates our commitment to be more responsive to our U.S. customers’ needs.”

The milestone also comes on the heels of the company’s recent groundbreaking of a new RTV manufacturing facility in Gainesville at Gateway Industrial Centre.

“This historic milestone is further proof that Kubota’s presence in Georgia is one of our state’s greatest business success stories,” said Deal. “Kubota’s continued investment in Georgia is a vote of confidence for our pro-business climate and skilled workforce, and I look forward to their continued impact on our state and U.S. manufacturing.”
