Moberly, Mo. — ԹϺ, an integrated equipment rental and equipment asset management company, celebrated today the grand opening of its new industrial and upfitting center in Moberly. The company is investing $46 million and will create 151 new jobs over the next four years.
“We’re excited to see a Missouri-made innovator like ԹϺ expanding, investing, and creating jobs in our state,” said Governor Mike Parson. “This company’s rapid growth is further proof that Missouri has what it takes to support leading and high-tech employers. We look forward to the positive impact that ԹϺ will provide in Moberly and beyond as it continues to benefit from our state’s strategic location, low costs, and skilled workforce.”
ԹϺ’s new industrial and upfitting center in Moberly will house industrial and technology operations including telematics installations, equipment refurbishment, and the manufacturing of attachments for equipment. The new 174,000-square-foot facility will allow the company to expand its research and development program, which includes assembly and telematics installation, as well as launch its tool and material refurbishment program.
“With these new operations, we are truly maximizing the longevity of equipment in every way, changing the construction game,” said Jabbok Schlacks, CEO and co-founder of ԹϺ. “Our technology is able to monitor machine health and maintain equipment at peak performance – and our specialized technicians and mechanics can refurbish dated equipment, ensuring those machines return to jobsites faster.”
ԹϺ develops cutting-edge technology that helps contractors from coast to coast build smarter. In addition to providing customers with a best-in-class equipment rental marketplace, the company offers a comprehensive suite of solutions that includes a fleet management platform and telematics devices.
“ԹϺ’s ongoing growth is an incredible Missouri success story that we’re proud to support,” said Michelle Hataway, Acting Director of the Department of Economic Development. “This innovative company’s new facility in Moberly, now its seventh statewide, is creating even more opportunities for Missourians to prosper. We’re grateful for all our partners who supported this project as ԹϺ continues to thrive right here in Missouri.”
For this expansion, ԹϺ will benefit from the Missouri Works program, a tool that helps companies expand and retain workers by providing access to capital through withholdings or tax credits for job creation.
ԹϺ is now hiring in Moberly for various roles, including service technicians, mechanics, production associates, and research developers. The company offers unique people-first focused benefits like tool reimbursement for service jobs, boot allowance, and 16 hours of time off each year to volunteer.
