High Concrete Group is starting an $8 million expansion of its Denver plant that could create 50 to 70 jobs, the company announced Wednesday.
High Concrete president John “J.” Seroky said the year-long project, which he described as a manufacturing “revitalization,” will help it meet growing demand for its architectural precast concrete.
Seroky said the expansion will boost High Concrete’s architectural-precast manufacturing capacity and efficiency, lower the site’s carbon footprint and improve working conditions.

Transporting | A New Idea for Workforce Development

From LancasterOnline
High Concrete Group and Four Seasons Produce are large employers in northern Lancaster County that have trouble recruiting entry-level workers for late-night and early-morning shifts.
About 20 miles to the south, meanwhile, are Lancaster city residents who might be interested in working for one of the companies.
But there’s a problem matching job openings with job candidates. Many city residents don’t have a car or even a driver’s license. And the Ephrata bus route ends miles short of both workplaces.
