Mecklenburg County officials say JGA Space and Defense — also known as Joe Gibbs Manufacturing Solutions — will expand its operations in Huntersville next year. The company plans to invest more than $25 million and create roughly 40 new jobs.
The new positions will have an average salary of about $55,000 and will include roles in quality control and engineering.
County leaders say the expansion reflects continued growth in the region’s advanced manufacturing and defense sectors.
