HIGH POINT, N.C. — A Canadian work and safety glove company is bringing a new manufacturing facility to High Point. The company has plans to create over 100 jobs in the area over the next five years.
Superior Glove has leased a 45,000-square-foot warehouse at 782 Gallimore Dairy Road, according to the city of High Point.
“This is an exciting milestone for Superior Glove as we expand our operations to better meet the growing needs of our customers,” Tony Geng, President of Superior Glove, said. “High Point’s talented workforce and strategic location make it an ideal choice for our first U.S. manufacturing facility, and we’re eager to build lasting partnerships within the community.”
