Ariens Company celebrates completion of expansion

Ariens Company, a family-run, American-owned business with more than 2,000 employees worldwide, held a ribbon-cutting ceremony Sept. 16 to celebrate the completion of a 26,000-square-foot, $3.8-million expansion at its headquarters in Brillion, Wis. The new space will be home to research and development, as well as engineering and expanded testing capabilities.

“The lifeblood, the heartbeat of the company, is in the product development, and that’s what we’re building here,” said Dan Ariens, president and CEO of Ariens Company, who also announced plans to expand the company’s workforce on the heels of a 28-percent increase in sales during its past fiscal year.
