(KAIR)--A new company will locate in Atchison’s Shannon Industrial Park.

According to a press release from Atchison Assistant Manger Justin Pregont, the Atchison Area Economic Development Corporation recently reached an agreement to sell Lot 2-E at the park to Integrity Reinforcing Bar, Inc., a startup rebar manufacturing company owned by the Bottorff Family of Atchison County.

Integrity Reinforcing Bar is scheduled to construct a new facility in the park in the next six months. The project aims to hire 3-4 full-time employees at the onset, with the potential for eight to ten employees in the next few years.

The Bottorff’s also own Bottorff Construction, a concrete construction company that employs about 90 people and has been in business since 1982.

Bottorff Construction President Justin Bottorff says their goal is to have the new facility running by February so they can be ready for their first big push of the year in March.

Bottorff said the company will buy rebar in long lengths, cutting and bending it to suit projects for his construction company and any others who do jobs of similar sizes.

The project represents the fifth major development in the Shannon Industrial Park in the past few years.
