NAUMD Network Member Nationwide Uniform Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fechheimer Brothers Co., announced a $11.5 million investment to expand its operations in Hodgenville, creating 63 quality jobs for Kentuckians.
The $11.5 million expansion comes in response to recent and projected growth for the company, which requires additional warehouse and distribution space. The project will include leaders at Fechheimer constructing a new 140,000-square-foot distribution center on 9.5 acres of vacant land.
Since 1842, Fechheimer has been a leading manufacturer of uniform apparel in Cincinnati, Ohio. A longtime network member of NAUMD, the company provides uniforms of public safety for police, military, and postal workers under its Flying Cross and Vertx brands. The company’s customers include city and state police departments, fire departments, the U.S. Coast Guard, the U.S. Postal Service, the U.S. military branches and most military academies. And recently, Fechheimer was selected to roll out the new Army Service Green Uniform to the U.S. Army.
