(Walton, Ky.) – An Ohio-based awning manufacturer is opening a new production operation in northern Kentucky.

Governor Andy Beshear announced Thursday that MAB Fabrication Inc. will locate a new production operation in Walton.

MAB plans to expand in an existing 165,000-square-foot facility on Beaver Road. The total investment is $6.9 million and will create 24 high-paying, full-time jobs.

“We are looking forward to our move to Walton, Kentucky,” said Tim Bischel, president of MAB Fabrication. “The relocation and new facility will allow us to meet our growth goals.”

MAB was founded in 2014 and is headquartered in Harrison, Ohio.

The company is a custom steel fabricator that manufacturers awnings for greenhouses, garden centers, and big-box stores.

“MAB Fabrication continues the trend of metals and manufacturing companies creating jobs in Kentucky as our economy roars back from this pandemic,” Gov. Beshear said. “This company is a welcome addition to the Northern Kentucky business community, and I hope to see its presence grow in our state for years to come. Thank you to the leaders of MAB for this commitment to the workforce in Boone County and the surrounding region. This new location again shows how Team Kentucky is creating a better future for Kentuckians throughout the commonwealth.”
