Information technology firm Provalus has selected Harrison as the location for its newest U.S. facility. Brewton, Ala.-based Provalus is investing approximately $1 million in the Harrison facility. The company expects to create 150 new jobs over five years.
“Every Provalus site reflects our belief that great careers and great communities can grow together,” said Provalus President Mike Keogh. “Harrison, Ark., is no exception. By creating high-value technology careers in Boone County we’re giving individuals the chance to build their futures without having to leave their hometowns. It’s about investing in people and helping small towns thrive again, and we’re honored to continue building that momentum here in Arkansas.”
“The support we’ve received from the city of Harrison and leaders across Arkansas has been nothing short of extraordinary,” said Will Ruzic, vice president of facilities for Provalus. “From Day 1, this community understood the heart of the Provalus mission, to create opportunity, and drive sustainable progress in rural America. This site is a direct result of what can happen when local, state and corporate partners come together around a shared goal. We’re grateful for their collaboration and proud to stand alongside them as we bring new jobs, skills and growth to the region.”
This will be Provalus’ second location in Arkansas, following its commitment to locating a facility in Walnut Ridge. The Walnut Ridge location is creating up to 200 jobs in the community.
“Provalus’ expansion is a testament to Arkansas’ dedicated workforce and the spirit of our rural communities,” said Gov. Sarah Sanders. “Through initiatives like Arkansas ACCESS, which prepares students for high-demand careers, and Arkansas LAUNCH, which connects job seekers with employers, we’re building a pipeline of opportunity across the state. I’m proud that Provalus sees the potential in rural Arkansas and is helping to bridge the gap between talent and opportunity.”
The company is siting its facility in an existing building, located at 101 N. Main St., in downtown Harrison.
“Rural Arkansas communities provide all the elements for business success — leading to Provalus’ new investment in Harrison, which is creating new jobs in the area,” said Clint O’Neal, executive director of the Arkansas Economic Development Commission. “After committing to Walnut Ridge, Provalus has doubled down on Arkansas and decided to site a new location in Harrison. This is a testament to the strength of our rural communities and the workforce in both Walnut Ridge and Harrison. We congratulate the city of Harrison and its leadership on attracting this new investment from Provalus.”
