Japan’s CKD Corp. Will Establish U.S. Ops in Austin
(Updated with additional information)
Gov. Greg Abbott recently announced that Japan-based CKD Corporation will establish its first U.S. production site in Austin. The $13-million investment will create up to 70 new jobs and is scheduled to begin operations in Fall 2021.
CKD Corporation provides an extensive array of automation technology products found in a wide range of industries including automotive, packaging, and medical. The Austin manufacturing facility will produce fluid control components for the semiconductor industry.
“CKD Corporation’s $13-million investment in the Lone Star State further solidifies Texas’ reputation as a premier economic destination both nationally and internationally,” said Abbott. “I am proud to welcome CKD Corporation to the Lone Star State and look forward to the economic prosperity this investment will bring to the Austin community.”
In connection with the announcement, NAI Partners arranged the sale of a 50,000-square-foot industrial facility at 4401 Supply Ct. in Austin to CKD.
