Description: A manufacturing and distribution facility is coming to Partnership Industrial Center West for Youngstown Glove Co. LLC. The building will feature a 67,000-square-foot warehouse and a 4,000-square-foot, two-story administrative office area. Company officials say they plan to equip the facility with automation and robotics to manufacture, test and distribute voltage-rated rubber gloves for industrial, construction and utility linemen. A new rubber glove line is also slated to be introduced at the factory. According to past Springfield Business Journal reporting, the company plans to create 20-25 jobs as part of the project, with plans to grow that workforce to 75-100 people over the next few years.
