Tucson, AZ (January 10, 2021) — PVB Fabrications, Inc. (PVB), a multi-disciplined general contractor and provider of quality welding and fabrication services for the commercial, utility, government, heavy industrial and mining sectors, broke ground last week to prepare for its headquarters expansion in Marana, Arizona.

In 2020 PVB purchased 10 acres for the expansion, now with an address of 11871 N. Breakers Rd. Marana, AZ 85658. Last week kicked off the construction of a new corporate headquarters to consolidate operations into one location. Initially, the new facilities will include a 15,400 square-foot administrative office building plus a separate 35,000 square-foot fabrication/production facility. A future phase of construction will include a second 35,000 square-foot fabrication/production facility providing 70,000 square feet of fabrication/production space.

PVB is currently located at 911 West Grant Road, 85705 and employs 410 people. The full expansion over 5 years will add an additional 169 jobs primarily in operations, project management, quality control, engineering, business development and finance.

Phase one of the new headquarters is scheduled to be complete by October 2021.

The total capital investment over the next 5 years will be approximately $17 million, resulting in a total economic impact of $48 million.

Partners in the project include the Arizona Commerce Authority, the Town of Marana, the Pima Community College and the Small Business Development Center, PICOR, Randel Jacob Design Group, PLLC, Stewart Title, Eric Nadler, Esq. and Arizona First Properties.

When announced in January 2020, local leaders said:
