APPLETON (NBC 26) — Gulfstream Aerospace Corp. announced Thursday it's investing more than $55 million and hiring for more than 200 new positions at its Appleton facility.

The company says the investment is to meet customer demand and growth in its fleet. Gulfstream says it's constructing a world-class aircraft paint facility in Appleton which is set to begin operations in the third quarter of 2023.

According to Gulfstream, the new facility will have the ability to paint up to 48 aircraft per year and will allow the company to perform the entire aircraft completions process start-to-finish in Appleton. 

The company has recently made several enhancements to the facility, including a new office area, a new wood finishing area, an upgraded shipping and receiving area, and a completions hangar featuring an employee entrance, breakroom, and lockers. 

Gulfstream will be hosting a job fair in Appleton on June 9, from 12:30 p.m.- 4:30 p.m. at its facility at N687 Discovery Drive.
