Keytronic, a global electronic manufacturing services provider, recently announced an expansion project in Corinth, Mississippi. The project represents a corporate investment of $8.89 million over the next five years and will create 376 jobs, according to the Mississippi Development Authority.
Keytronic designs and builds complex electronic and electromechanical products. The company’s Corinth location is a full-service facility with production capabilities that include electronics assembly, final assembly, product fulfillment, warehousing and distribution.
The project will involve the rehabilitation of the existing facility, including roof renovations, as well as the addition of new electronics and final assembly production lines to support increased demand.
The Mississippi Development Authority is assisting the project through the Mississippi Flexible Tax Incentive (MFLEX) program. Alcorn County, the Tennessee Valley Authority and AccelerateMS are also providing assistance.
Originally opened in 1961, the Corinth location, which has operated under Keytronic's name since 2014, currently employs approximately 420 workers.
The contract manufacturer has multiple facilities in the U.S., Mexico and Vietnam.
