Spain-Based Vicente Torns Plans West Liberty, Ohio, Manufacturing Operations Spain-based copper and aluminum conductor manufacturer Vicente Torns plans to establish operations in West Liberty, Ohio. The $21 million project is expected to create 108 jobs. The investment will include the acquisition, renovation and expansion of an existing building and the installation of new equipment to manufacture conductors used in electric transformers. “Establishing our first manufacturing operation in the United States marks an important step in the continued growth of Vicente Torns. Within four years, we expect the U.S. market to account for 15 percent of the group’s total revenue,” said Vicente Torns CEO Vicente Torns. “West Liberty provides a strong foundation to serve our customers, build a skilled local workforce and expand our production capabilities in North America. We appreciate the partnership and support that helped bring this investment to the Columbus Region.” To support the project, the Ohio Tax Credit Authority approved a 1.427 percent, eight-year Job Creation Tax Credit. “Ohio continues to win global manufacturers because we deliver what they actually need: access to customers, resilient supply chains, and the ability to scale fast from the center of the North American market,” noted JobsOhio President and CEO J.P. Nauseef. “Vicente Torns' investment is proof our strategy to attract global companies critical to the nation's energy infrastructure is working.” Vicente Torns is a manufacturer of copper and aluminum electrical conductors and related products for the energy, automotive, construction, infrastructure, and industrial markets. “The Columbus Region has become a strong entry point for global manufacturers establishing U.S. operations,” added One Columbus Chief Economic Development Officer and President Jonas Peterson. “Our central location provides efficient access to major North American markets. Our manufacturing base connects companies with experienced workers and established industrial partners. Communities such as West Liberty offer the capacity and support needed for long-term growth. Vicente Torns’ decision reflects the strength of that regional proposition.”
