Ziehl-Abegg to build North Carolina headquarters

Ziehl-Abegg Inc., a manufacturer of commercial ventilation systems, will invest more than $100 million to expand its operations and relocate its North American headquarters to Winston-Salem. The expansion is expected to create 189 jobs.

The Germany-based company produces industrial fan systems and motors, employing 5,000 people worldwide. This expansion to a new, 500,000-sq.-ft. building will increase its production capabilities and distribution for North America.
