Expansion At Brillion Plant Means 150 New Jobs

Renovation work at the Ariens Company plant in Brillion will mean 150 new jobs for the region around Calumet County. The company reports double-digit growth in the demand for its zero-turn lawnmowers. The company says it isn’t expanding the plant — it is adding technology to improve productivity. Ariens plans to hold open calls for job positions this weekend. The new positions will be filled over the next two months.
