NEENAH, WI – Plexus Corp. said it intends to construct a 410,000 sq. ft. manufacturing facility here.

The site will replace two existing leased facilities and will consolidate approximately 1,000 employees into the new building.

The facility is expected to cost approximately $50 million, with construction expected to begin in July, with a completion date of fall 2013.

Plexus is eligible for $15 million in enterprise zone tax credits through the Wisconsin Economic Development Corp. These tax credits will be distributed over a seven-year period. Incentives from the City of Neenah are also contemplated, subject to approval by city officials, the firm says.
