ROSWELL, GA — The governor’s office announced a new business plan to bring its headquarters to Roswell.

“Aerospace is one of the Georgia’s top industries thanks to innovative companies like PBS Aerospace that call Georgia home. By preparing strategic, new ready-for-development sites and supporting workforce development initiatives in high-demand careers, we will keep building on our success and creating opportunities for hardworking Georgians,” said Governor Brian Kemp.

PBS Aerospace, based in the Czech Republic, designs and manufactures turbo jet engines.

Roswell Mayor Kurt Wilson says the company will invest up to $20 million dollars to establish the headquarters on North Meadow and a new facility that will be built at the tech village north site.

“PBS Group’s owner, William Didden, made the decision to establish Georgia as the location for our U.S. headquarters because of the successful foundation we have built in Atlanta through PBS Aerospace,” said Tomas Koutsky, Managing Director of PBS Aerospace.

Mayor Kurt Wilson says PBS Aerospace will hire about 100 high skilled workers with an average salary of $150,000 a year.

“Today’s news is the result of investing in our relationships at home and internationally, taking the time to ensure companies have a great experience working with the state at their existing locations and taking the initiative to meet with company leadership in-person to learn more about their plans for the future,” said GDECD Commissioner Pat Wilson.

It’s expected to be fully operational in April.
