Lavonia Manufacturer Alliance Supply & Piping Expanding Operations

Earlier this week we told you the Franklin County Industrial Building Authority was in contract negotiations for the sale of 20 acres on Gerrard Road behind Harbin Lumber and the EMS building.

On Thursday, the IBA announced Alliance Supply and Piping LLC on Gerrard Road in Lavonia is the buyer.

Alliance is expanding its operations from its current plant on Gerrard Road, which is across from the new property.

Begun in 2006, Alliance Supply and Piping manufactures sheet metal ducts and supplies for the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning industry.

Since then, they have quickly grown as a supplier of metal ductwork and related products to the HVAC industry, shipping to contractors and wholesalers throughout the Southeast.

The Company plans to invest $4.5 million in the new property and a new building where it plans to expand its product line.

Once complete, their new facility will manufacture spiral ductwork and create an additional 30 jobs.

Their new site will also provide space for future expansion, allowing Alliance to grow into one of the largest sheet metal duct factories in Georgia.
