A major milestone marked Thursday morning in Bowling Green as AKFA Aluminum Solutions became the first Uzbekistani manufacturer to operate in the United States.
The groundbreaking ceremony at the company’s future site brought together company leaders, state and local officials and partners.
AKFA Group produces up to 100,000 tons of product annually, supplying materials for global markets including construction, transportation and renewable energy, according to a news release.
The company’s new facility will serve as a full-cycle production hub, featuring advanced extrusion, anodizing and finishing capabilities aligned with U.S. energy and environmental standards. AKFA’s first U.S. operation will integrate recycled aluminum billets and energy-efficient systems to support a low-carbon supply chain.
The company’s investment in the new facility will also create 331 new jobs.
