Ground Force of Nature

POST FALLS - Just as Ground Force Worldwide CEO Ron Nilson is getting his new 65,000-square-foot manufacturing facility up and running, he has plans to add another 40,000-square-foot factory and a 8,200-square-foot corporate office here.

“I’m going to hire between 100 and 125 new employees as well,” he said, adding most of those jobs will be in the manufacturing sector, but also engineering and administration.

And he isn’t wasting any time, Nilson has already snapped up Transtector’s former Human Resource Director Colleen McGruder-Krajack, and the Coeur d’Alene Mining Company’s Accounting Service Manager Julie Garrett as his new Chief Financial Officer. He hired Eric Keck, the former city administrator of Post Falls, last year as his chief operating officer. Full story . Jeff Selle, Cda Press
