Gulfstream Announces Savannah Manufacturing Facility Expansion

Coming Up Roses in the Peach State

Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation has completed a strategic expansion of the storied plane-maker’s Savannah precision manufacturing facility for the Gulfstream G400, Gulfstream G500, and Gulfstream G600. Subject expansion increases the facility’s capacity by 142,000 square feet (13,192 square meters).

Gulfstream president Mark Burns set forth: “Gulfstream continues to invest across all our facilities, including in Savannah, our headquarters for more than fifty-years. We designed the G400, G500, and G600 to have a number of commonalities that increase both operational and manufacturing efficiencies. Those commonalities mean that we have the flexibility to easily expand production lines to meet the growing demand for these aircraft, which also increases job growth across the region.”

Production methods for the G400, G500, and G600 were designed with Gulfstream’s Savannah-based research and development team, and include advanced automation, 3D model designs, and robotic and bonding techniques that result in unprecedented quality and precision.

Mr. Burns added: “The technological advancements in our state-of-art manufacturing facilities help us deliver the highest quality product in the industry, built by the industry’s most talented workforce.”

Manufacturing growth is part of Gulfstream’s overall long-term strategic plan, which includes the expansion of the Savannah facility’s wing and empennage production, as well as the associated Customer Support service center. These latest investments total $150-million and are expected to add 1,600 new jobs to the southeast Georgia region.

In addition to the Savannah expansions, Gulfstream has increased aircraft outfitting capabilities in Appleton, Wisconsin, and at Illinois’s St. Louis Downtown Airport. What’s more, Gulfstream continues to expand Customer Support operations in the Dallas-Fort Worth and Mesa, Arizona metropolitan areas.
