Rockline Industries, Sheboygan, Wis., is moving capacity for facial wipes production from Europe to its Springdale, Ark., plant to support sales to Walmart. Rockline invested $15 million in the move to expand the Arkansas plant and construct a new facial wipes line. Over the next year, the company plans to add 50 jobs to its already thriving 800-strong workforce.
“Walmart has been a great partner for many years and we’re pleased to be working with them to bring jobs back to the U.S.,” said Randy Rudolph, president, Rockline. “Rockline has always been dedicated to helping the communities in which we operate, and we’re confident this move will create a beneficial impact throughout the state of Arkansas.”
