Vehicle Service Group invests $5M to expand vehicle lifting equipment manufacturing facility in Indiana
Vehicle Service Group (VSG), part of Dover and a manufacturer of vehicle lifting and repair equipment, has announced plans to expand its manufacturing facility in Madison, Indiana. The company, which supplies equipment for vehicle service and repair, is investing over $5 million in the project.
The expansion includes the installation of an automated production line that will complement VSG's existing operations. This investment will increase production capacity to meet rising demand across North America, while also improving product availability and reducing lead times for customers. The facility upgrade will include new automation and production equipment, and will offer skills development opportunities for employees based in Madison. The project timeline includes equipment installation, recruitment, and training of new team members, with full production expected to ramp up in the first quarter of 2026.
