Lake County Loses Another Business to Wisconsin

Kenall Manufacturing in Gurnee and Hanna Cylinders in Libertyville recently announced moves to Wisconsin.

Kenall Manufacturing in Gurnee, employer of up to 400 people at its Lakeside Drive facility, will be moving to Kenosha, Wis., after receiving an incentive package from the state of Wisconsin, according to the Daily Herald. 

The business has been in Gurnee for 25 years and will move to a larger facility in Kenosha and is expected to add 225 jobs in the coming years, according to the article. 

The business is the second in recent weeks to be lured to Wisconsin through incentives. Hanna Cylinders recently received a $1.5 million financing package to move 100 of its jobs from Libertyville to Pleasant Prairie, according to the Libertyville review.
