Champion Home Builders in Benton, Kentucky is looking to add 50 employees to its staff.
General Manager Tom Stoneburner said the need is brought about by a dramatic improvement in the demand for mobile homes, as well as a recent contract with FEMA to build homes for hurricane victims in the southern United States. He said the FEMA contract is for 120 units to be built in the Benton plant, but stressed the jobs were permanent positions and the need for an increased workforce would be in place long after the FEMA homes are complete.
“We already have all the homes sold that we can manufacture through the end of March 2018.” said Stoneburner. “We are ready to ramp up production to meet the growing demand.” He said the Benton plant produces about 1,300 mobile homes each year.
