Vermeer plans to add a new engineering building as part of its rebuild after a tornado destroyed part of the campus in July, the Des Moines Register reported. CEO Jason Andringa said the new facility will bring together engineers now scattered in several buildings. It will be named Shop 48, a reference to the 1948 creation of the company. Andringa also reported that two plants were destroyed in the tornado and will be rebuilt. Sales have remained strong as workers began rebuilding the Pella campus.
