WEST JORDAN — What was once an empty cabinet manufacturing plant is now home to a facility that will build high-tech components for commercial jet aircraft.
Boeing announced Friday the purchase of a new building in Salt Lake County. Employees at the new site, located in West Jordan, will work on fabrication of composite horizontal stabilizer components for the 787-9 Dreamliner.
“The site we’ve chosen is an ideal location to add composite manufacturing capability focused on Boeing’s key business strategies,” said Ross Bogue, vice president and general manager of Boeing Fabrication. “This new facility will provide a real competitive advantage in our supply chain by expanding our internal composite capabilities.”
