(Batesville, IN) – IKIO LED Lighting founder and CEO Ekamdeep Singh has informed city leaders that his company is expanding the existing facility in the Batesville Industrial Park to 150,000 square feet.
IKIO purchased the 50,400 square foot Shell Building in 2022 with plans to construct a manufacturing and warehousing facility.
The Shell Building was constructed with support from the City of Batesville to entice new industries, support economic sustainability, and bring new jobs to our community.
“We are excited to expand our manufacturing and distribution operations by an additional 100,000 square feet creating up to 50 new jobs over the next two years. The City of Batesville has been an invaluable partner in our growth, and we are grateful for their support. This expansion strengthens our commitment to U.S. manufacturing, sustainability, and keeping jobs local as we continue to innovate in Sola and Lighting solutions,” said Singh.
“When IKIO LED Lighting chose Batesville in 2022, they brought jobs, a commitment to innovation, and a vision for the future. This planned expansion, which would triple their footprint to 150,000 square feet and create up to 50 new jobs, demonstrates their continued confidence in our community and reinforces Batesville’s position as a key location for manufacturing. I’m pleased to offer my support to this initiative,” said Mayor John Irrgang.
“I certainly echo Mayor Irrgang’s support for IKIO LED Lighting’s expansion. It’s particularly gratifying to see this exciting development coincide with the completion of the final phase of our Industrial Park, which is the completion of vital road infrastructure,” Batesville Redevelopment Commission President Bill Narwold.
IKIO LED Lighting is headquartered in Indianapolis.
