Jamestown Metal expanding ops

Jamestown Metal is expanding its operations in Pascagoula, Miss., to accommodate new contracts with shipbuilder VT Halter Marine. The expansion project is a $375,000 corporate investment that is to create 100 jobs. Jamestown Metal expects to begin operations in its new facility in January 2020. VT Halter Marine recently was awarded a $745M contract for the design and construction of a Polar Security Cutter for the Coast Guard. Jamestown Metal, a multifaceted company specializing in joiner solutions, electrical, piping and HVAC, was awarded a contract to help build the new security cutter. Jamestown Metal will reconstruct its warehouse and fabrication facility and add new fabrication equipment to support VT Halter contracts.
