Graco Announces Relocation of Minneapolis Operations to Existing Northwest Metro Campuses

Graco Inc. (NYSE: GGG), a leading manufacturer of fluid and materials handling equipment, announced today that it will relocate its remaining Riverside Minneapolis operations and corporate teams to its growing campuses in the northwest metro area.

Graco has called the banks of the Mississippi River in Northeast Minneapolis its home since the 1940s, with both corporate offices and manufacturing operations based along the historic riverfront. Over time, as Graco has expanded its operations, many of its Minnesota-based teams have moved to nearby campuses in the cities of Rogers, Dayton and Anoka, where Graco has built and expanded manufacturing facilities and office space.

“As we continue to grow and evolve globally, we’ve taken a thoughtful look at how best to align our Minnesota facilities to maximize manufacturing capacity,” said Mark Sheahan, President and CEO of Graco. “The decision to consolidate our operations and offices in the northwest metro positions us for continued growth while fostering greater collaboration and operational synergy.”

Graco will gradually exit its Riverside campus in Minneapolis over the next two years and is planning construction of a new corporate headquarters on its existing campus in either Rogers or Dayton. The company will begin the process of preparing the campus for sale as part of this transition. Graco has operations in 12 countries and sells products in more than 100 countries worldwide.
