Roanoke-based business to expand in Scott County, add 200 jobs
A Scott County business is expanding again, this time investing $35 million in its Duffield manufacturing campus. The move will create 200 jobs.
VFP is a producer of custom-designed enclosures used to protect infrastructure.
“For six decades, VFP has been a cornerstone of Virginia’s manufacturing strength and innovation,” Gov. Glenn Youngkin said in making the announcement. “Their latest expansion in Scott County is proof that when businesses double down on Virginia, they grow, thrive, and create new opportunities for hardworking Virginians. This investment reflects exactly what happens when we champion business, empower workers, and unlock the potential of every region of the Commonwealth.”
Scott File, president and CEO of VFP, said in the release that the latest expansion is the third and largest plant expansion done over the last five years. It will double production capacity, he said.
The company’s headquarters is in Roanoke.
