BRIX Marine is expanding its manufacturing facility in Port Angeles, WA, reinforcing its commitment to the local community and economic development.
The new facility, spanning more than 35,000sqft will enable BRIX Marine to increase its overall production capacity and expand its product portfolio.
Located in Port Angeles, the new location will have direct access to the Port Angeles Boat Haven via a Marine Travelift.
The development is also set to strengthen the relationship between BRIX Marine and the Port of Angeles.
The expansion of BRIX Marine’s manufacturing facility will create employment opportunities in the region.
Over and above BRIX’s current workforce and the local contractors needed during construction, BRIX Marine plans to add 14 new jobs, including direct employees, engineers, and support staff within the first one to two years.
We will be delivering exciting new vessels from this location.
