Gunlocke, an HNI-owned manufacturer of high-end office furniture, has completed a $2.6 million expansion in Wayland, New York, adding 110 jobs.

The expansion was possible due to a state economic development package, Recharge NY, that grants qualifying businesses and non-profits lower energy costs in exchange for commitments to create or retain jobs in New York.

"ReCharge NY is supporting hundreds of thousands of jobs across the state and has been an instrumental piece of the state's economic success over the last several years," Governor Cuomo said. "Providing low-cost power to companies like Gunlocke allows them to grow and thrive in New York, spurring the local economy while securing New York's clean energy future for generations to come."

Under the program, Gunlocke was also able to install electric vehicle charging stations at its facility.

The expansion, which utilized existing space at the facility, included the installation of equipment that will allow the firm to increase its chair production volume. The expanded facility is also now able to manufacture additional furniture lines that were formerly produced out of state.
