S&C Electric Plans Manufacturing Expansion with 275K-SF Palatine Facility
Electrical grid company S&C Electric will expand its U.S. manufacturing footprint with a 275,000-square-foot facility in Palatine, IL, approximately 25 miles from S&C’s 47-acre Chicago headquarters and manufacturing campus in Rogers Park.
The company employs 3,500 team members globally and more than 2,000 in Chicago, reportedly making it the second-largest manufacturer in the city. The Palatine facility is expected to increase headcount by about 200.
“Chicago has been home to S&C for over 110 years, and the talent here is an essential part of our growth and success,” said Anders Sjoelin, S&C’s president and CEO. “This expansion strengthens our commitment to U.S. manufacturing and the Chicagoland area, allowing us to better serve customers with solutions that advance a resilient, intelligent electrical grid.
“Additionally, we’re pleased to add jobs, create value and support our local team members and communities,” Sjoelin continued. The facility is expected to be operational by early 2024.
