Next month, a Canadian, Alberta-based industrial mining aggregate equipment company will be taking over the former SkyCast facility at 924 N. Tweedy Road, bringing much-needed employment opportunities to the city.

Elrus Aggregate Systems has started hiring already for its approximately 75-100 positions, to be comprised of administrative office staff as well as specialized skillset jobs like welders and mechanics.

This will be the company’s first U.S. headquarters since its founding in Calgary, Alberta in Canada in 1974. The company currently has a total of seven plants in Canada.

The company has agreed to a five-year lease with the new owners of fellow Canadian company, SkyCast, the former occupant which shut down its Eloy facility in 2011. SkyCast produced decorative concrete street light poles. The lease agreement opens the possibility of buying the 71,700 square foot building outright, which Elrus representative Kevin Lange says he will consider after first ‘testing the waters’, he told the Phoenix Business Journal last week.

Official open date for Elrus is set for Monday, April 1.
