Quote TUSCALOOSA, Alabama -- Automotive parts maker ZF Industries announced Friday that a $14.6 million expansion will create 85 new jobs at its manufacturing facility in Tuscaloosa. Gov. Robert Bentley and Tuscaloosa Mayor Walt Maddox joined ZF officials and Mercedes-Benz U.S. International president and CEO Markus Schaefer at an event Friday morning at ZF's manufacturing plant in the Tuscaloosa County Airport Industrial Park. ZF will add 60,000 square feet of space to its 157,000-square-foot facility at the Tuscaloosa County Airport Industrial Park later this year after being selected to supply axle systems for the Mercedes C-Class sedan, which will be built at the Mercedes plant in Vance beginning in 2014. |
