MUNCIE, IN — L&J Manufacturing Solutions has opened its new corporate headquarters and production facility at 1001 S. Council St., just south of downtown Muncie.
According to a news release, the company is investing over $1.5 million into the site, which will now serve as the central hub for engineering, design, assembly and manufacturing operations.
The newly renovated facility marks a major step forward for the company, which saw 2024 sales exceed $2.5 million and has nearly doubled its revenue in the first half of 2025, the release said. The Muncie location will initially support up to 15 employees, with room for growth as the company “continues to scale.”
“Our entrepreneurial investment in Muncie reflects both the strength of our customer demand and our belief in the long-term future of American manufacturing,” said Justin Clauson, CEO of L&J Manufacturing Solutions. “This new location gives us the flexibility to serve our North American clients with even greater speed, precision, and innovation.”
L&J’s equipment is sold and deployed throughout North America, supporting clients in a wide range of sectors through machinery sales and full manufacturing line setup.
In addition to its Muncie operations, the company maintains a second, similar production facility in Winnipeg, Canada, allowing it to serve both the U.S. and Canadian markets efficiently.
Company leadership expects that within the next five years, a larger facility will be necessary along with an additional $3 million to $5 million investment, all intended to keep up with demand and extend product offerings, according to the release.
The local project is being completed “without the use or help of any local or state incentive programs, a testament to the company’s independence, self-driven momentum, and market strength,” the release said.
