Baxter completes $270 million Alabama expansion

Baxter completed a $270 million expansion of its Opelika, Alabama facility, more than doubling its size to 400,000 square feet and adding four production lines. The workforce grew from 170 to over 350 employees.

“This expansion more than doubles both the physical size and number of employees in Baxter's Opelika facility, allowing us to increase the production of life-sustaining dialyzers we produce for patients with end-stage renal disease.”madeinalabama.com
