Spartan Motors expands Ephrata plant after USPS contract win

Spartan Motors accepted a $678,000 grant and tax credit package from Pennsylvania for its Ephrata plant expansion, following a $214 million USPS contract to build over 2,000 cargo body vehicles. The expansion is expected to create nearly 200 new jobs over three years.

“Rather than build or buy a new facility elsewhere, we made the decision to re-invest in and revitalize our Ephrata location, placing the Utilimaster truck body plant here.”prnewswire.com
