Wright Companies Set to Join Kentucky Enterprise Industrial Park

Posted on 5 years ago

PIKEVILLE, Ky.— The newest tenant for the Kentucky Enterprise Industrial Park (KEIP) has been approved by the Pikeville City Commission.

Wright Companies will lease and fully develop the second speculative building at the park to serve as the headquarters for their more than 20 businesses.

In addition to the 250 employees Wright already has in the Appalachian region, the company will immediately create 40 new jobs, with 20 additional jobs planned for the near future.

Wright Companies plan to leverage the area’s modern infrastructure system, which includes ample rail, interstate and air opportunities, to create, bag and distribute its specialized construction materials to the tri-state region, as well as nationally and globally.
