A ceremony was held in Graves County on Tuesday recognizing a $5.3 million dollar expansion and 40 new jobs.
Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear joined local leaders in celebrating the newly expanded facility of MRCOOL in the Hickory Industrial Park.
A 22,000 square foot expansion for office space brings the facility to a total of almost 121,000 square feet, and complements the 100,000 square foot distribution site in the industrial park.
The new expansion included two floors of office space, a large showroom, video graphics for marketing and a customer service and warranty team call center.
Founded in Hickory in 2013, HVAC Distributing is a national wholesale distributor of heating and air conditioning equipment, which established the MRCOOL brand.
The company currently employees 279 workers.
