Pulaski County’s Volvo Trucks is gearing up for a hiring spree that will add “several hundred” new employees to its ranks, according to company spokesman John Mies.
Mies wrote in an email that it’s too soon to know exactly how many workers the company will bring on, but the plant needs help to keep up with strong industry demand.
Right now, it employs about 2,600 people.
“The truck market continues to improve, and we’ve seen strong interest in the new Volvo VNR and VNL models we introduced this year,” Mies wrote.
