Sennebogen LLC, the Stanley, North Carolina-based subsidiary of that Germany-based equipment maker, has hosted a ceremony to celebrate an expansion of its campus in Stanley.

Saying its subsidiary in America “has been very successful for almost 25 years,” Sennebogen credits the business unit for its reach into several industry sectors, including metal recycling, steel mills, the timber industry, port operations and waste management.

Sennebogen LLC, founded in 2000, initially was housed “in modest rented premises,” says the equipment company. “Nine years later, thanks to dynamic growth, the company was able to move into its own location with offices, training rooms and a large spare parts warehouse,” states Sennebogen.

Four years after that, its space had to be doubled and now, a spring 2024 groundbreaking ceremony was held “for an impressive further expansion” that will entail the creation of “an additional three training rooms and halls, new office space, a spacious, highly innovative apprenticeship workshop based on the German model and a presentation and demonstration area.”

Sennebogen says the more than 160,000 square feet of floor space that will exist after expansion will be situated on its 35-acre site in Stanley.

At the North Carolina campus, Sennebogen LLC says it hosts sales partners and customers from the United States, Canada, Central America, Brazil and Uruguay.

“With 110 employees and the continued market success of the last 24 years, this investment forms the basis for the further expansion of the company's market leadership in these important markets,” states Sennebogen.
