Governor Mike Pence and Lieutenant Governor Eric Holcomb will take part in a groundbreaking Thursday in Middlebury. Grand Design RV is set to begin construction on an $11 million expansion of its headquarters.

Grand Design RV will toast its next round of growth. The company is looking to add up to 100 jobs and building two, 110,000 square-foot facilities on a recently-acquired property. Work is expected to be complete in the fall and the buildings will support production of its Imagine trailer and a new inspection and service center.

At the end of 2014, the recreational vehicle maker joined a number of other Hoosier companies detailing expansions. It pumped $6.9 million into its Middlebury headquarters. Grand Design RV currently employs more than 800 in northern Indiana.
