A New Jersey-based underground pipeline contractor has purchased a 60-acre site in Dinwiddie County for a manufacturing facility that will bring with it the need for new workers.
Spiniello will begin manufacturing special sewer pipe liners at the new site in the coming months and will hire up at least 15 people with plans for further expansion.
Art Caprio, who oversees real estate and manufacturing for Spiniello, said the company will be relocating an existing operation from Pennsylvania to the Dinwidde location.
“We were going to reestablish ourselves at another location in Pittsburgh, but we saw a lot of things going on in Virginia,” Caprio said.
Spiniello, headquartered in Livingston, N.J., received assistance from Virginia Economic Development Partnership and will receive job training and recruitment funds from the Virginia Department of Business Assistance.
“We’ve been told there is a ready workforce in Dinwiddie County,” Caprio said.
“Just to get started, we need at least 15 or 20 people,” Caprio said, adding that they plan to expand in the future.
The company won’t be hiring for a few months, because it still has to complete some modifications to the existing site.
Spiniello is one of the big players when it comes to working on large sewer projects, having done work for the military and federal, state and municipal governments including in Baltimore, Philadelphia, Las Vegas and Richmond. Most of the company’s work involves restoring and maintaining existing sewer systems.
“We line some of the biggest pipe in the country,” Caprio said.
The company also has offices in Baltimore, California and Canada.
