Budge Industries Expanding in Henderson

A company that makes protective covers for vehicles is expanding its operation in Henderson County.

Gov. Steve Beshear's office says Budge Industries expects to create up to 37 new jobs and invest $650,000 into the project.

The company will expand its 75,000-square-foot facilities and will expand into a new distribution facility.

The state has given preliminary approval for tax incentives up to $200,000 for the project.

Pennsylvania-based Budge Industries makes and distributes protective coverings for cars, trucks, motorcycles, RVs, boats and patio furniture.

The company will mark its 75th year in business next year and its 20th in Henderson.
