Carter Lumber expansion to create 36 new jobs in Bowling Green

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – Carter Lumber is expanding its building component manufacturing facility in Bowling Green in the Kentucky Transpark.

According to a release by the Bowling Green Area Chamber of Commerce, the project is part of their rebuilding following the devastating tornados that impacted the local area.

“It’s great to see businesses in our area pick themselves back up and rebuild after the tornado. This investment is huge for our community as it will help rebuild and establish for future growth,” said Warren County Judge-Executive Doug Gorman.

The construction is possible due to a $8.6 million investment into the facility on Cosma Drive, allowing the company to create 36 new jobs.

The new facility is expected to be completed by the end of 2023.
