Celebrating 40 years of success, Barron Lighting Group recently purchased a new 80,000 sq. ft. production facility. The Barron Team is expected to be thriving in its new location in Glendale, Arizona January 2014.
"This is truly an exciting time for the Barron team as this move marks another milestone in our company's story," remarked Alan Tracy, owner and president of Barron Lighting Group. "With the rapid growth we've been experiencing these past few years; our new facility will allow us to house all production operations under one roof."
Gaining greater efficiencies is just one of the benefits for this new endeavor. Some of the added features in this facility include a new paint line, metal forming equipment, expanded warehouse space, more production lines and a larger testing lab with state of the art equipment. These capabilities will allow Barron to be more proactive in developing products and in reducing lead times to its customers. To improve upon its green initiative, Barron will also be adding a baler machine to aid in their recycling efforts.
"Our team members have been working hard to make this move possible. We are very thrilled to reward them with a more progressive working environment. We are working very diligently to secure and grow our model as a proud American manufacturer. As we continue to grow, we hope this setting will be another factor that will attract local talent to our business. Investing in people and the community is ultimately a win for us all," added Tracy.
While Barron's key focus has been the use of high power LEDs in commercial and industrial lighting products, currently sold throughout the United States and Canada, future plans include a full product launch into the global space as well as significant brand and product diversification.
