The New Yorker Blower Company and Kiln Drying Systems & Components will be investing $8.14 million in Philadelphia to open a new facility and create 60 jobs. “New York Blower and KDS’ new facility in Neshoba County will bring not only good-paying jobs but also new opportunities to the area’s residents and local community. We welcome them to Mississippi and look forward to the bright economic future of these companies and our state.”– Gov. Tate Reeves

The two companies manufacture batch and continuous lumber drying kilns, wood waste heat plants and industrial air movement products. New York Blower and KDS selected Mississippi as the location of its new Southeast operations due to the numerous sawmills that have announced new locations or expansions in Mississippi recently. The new joint venture will be known as New York Blower/KDS.

The operations will be located in the former Richardson Molding facility in Philadelphia. The companies are presently renovating the facility’s interior and exterior and installing equipment. “We welcome New York Blower to the city of Philadelphia. Thanks to Governor Tate Reeves and the staff of MDA, the hard work of David Vowell of our local Community Development Partnership and the support of city and county governments made this possible. Quality manufacturing will bring new opportunities to the citizens of Philadelphia.” – Mayor James Young, City of Philadelphia
