The Littleton Industrial Park has been a flurry of activity these past few months, first with the spring groundbreaking of a 117,250 square foot new facility for Tender Corporation, makers of insect repellent and first aid remedies, and now with Rotobec. In late July, Rotobec broke ground on a 23,000 square-foot expansion. The Quebec-based manufacturer of grapples and material handlers first set up shop in Littleton in 1986.

Rotobec's Littleton plant employs 21 people and serves as both production facility and the U.S. distribution center of Rotobec products, according to the Littleton Industrial Park. The expansion, which will triple the size of Rotobec's Littleton building, will allow the company to manufacture complete knuckle-boom loaders here. It will also lead an additional 25-30 manufacturing jobs in Littleton.
Hiring will begin this fall, with the expansion slated for completion by March. To read more about the plant's growth, read this article from the NH Community Development Finance Authority.
