Goldman Titanium, 2 others make pitch to ECIDA
A Buffalo manufacturer of
titanium-based products hopes to expand its local operations.
Goldman Titanium Inc. is working with the Erie County
Industrial Development Agency and City of Buffalo officials on an
expansion project that will see the company add 12,000-square-feet to its
Dorothy Street plant and headquarters. Goldman is adding a new line of
processing for titanium scrap.
The $645,000 project could see
the company add eight new jobs in the next year. The Erie County Industrial
Development Agency's directors are expected to consider an incentive package
for the project when they meet on Oct. 15.
Goldman currently has 48 workers
at its Buffalo plant.
At the same meeting, the ECIDA
directors will also consider an incentive package for the Wendt Corp.
that wants to expand its Cheektowaga plant.
The agency's directors will also
consider an incentive package for Sustainable BioPower LLC, a Cleveland-based company
that wants to construct a 16,000-square-foot in West Seneca's North America
Center business park.
Sustainable BioPower plans on
investing $5 million on the project that will create 7 jobs initially. It takes
waste products like food scraps and through a technical process and converts
them into energy that is sold to National Grid for its power
bank.
The company, earlier this month,
received a similar incentive package from the Niagara County Industrial
Development Agency to build an operation in the Summitt Business Park
in Wheatfield.
