CrossRoads RV, a division of Thor Industries, is headquartered in Topeka. This project will consist of the construction of a new 22,000 square-foot corporate headquarters facility adjacent to their current manufacturing campus and will support the creation of up to 10 new positions, as well as the retention of current staffing levels. The Town of Topeka council, at the request of the LaGrange County Economic Development Corporation, approved the use of tax abatements on the investment into the new facility at their August 13th meeting, estimated to be valued at around $2 million dollars in total. “We are grateful for the continued support we receive and the partnership we have created with the Town of Topeka,” said Michael Kloska, Executive Vice-President of CrossRoads RV. “Building our new corporate headquarters in Topeka demonstrates our commitment to the community. The Town of Topeka continues to offer a quality workforce and a pro-business environment, which makes it a great place to do business.” “CrossRoads RV continues to be a great partner in the Town of Topeka, and we’re very excited that they continue to expand their operations within LaGrange County,” said Keith Gillenwater, President & CEO of the LaGrange County Economic Development Corporation.
