New Liebherr USA headquarters under development in Newport News

Members of the Liebherr family, Executive Management and Newport News city officials gathered last Friday, July 20th for a groundbreaking ceremony on site in Copeland Industrial Park to celebrate the construction of the new Liebherr USA, Co. headquarters. “The commencement of this $45 million expansion project marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for Liebherr in the United States. The company, that has been manufacturing and operating in Newport News, VA for over 48 years, broke ground at the site adjacent to its current location.”

The new facility will serve as the new headquarters for Liebherr USA, Co. and will include the construction of three new buildings: a state–of-the-art four-story administrative building, a carefully designed warehouse and parts distribution centre to meet current and future requirements, and a modernised production and workshop facility intended to support the company’s cranes, construction and concrete divisions. Once completed, the new buildings will add over 251,000 square feet to the existing 560,000 square foot Liebherr campus. “This investment will greatly impact the company’s operations in the US and drive Liebherr’s strategy for long-term growth.

With shovels in hand, Sophie Albrecht, Jan Liebherr, Newport News Mayor McKinley Price, Managing Directors of Liebherr USA, Co., its building partners and government officials broke ground during the ceremony. “The US is a strategic market for Liebherr and with this investment we send a clear message of commitment to our customers, employees and the local community here in
Newport News,” said Torben Reher, Managing Director of Liebherr USA, Co.
