Con-Vey Expands Operations In Oregon
Con-Vey is planning an expansion of its operations with the acquisition of approximately 15 additional acres, including 150,000 sq. ft. of manufacturing space. Strategically located with both highway and freeway access, and just 6.3 miles from Con-Vey’s headquarters, this new facility strengthens the company’s commitment to long-term growth in Roseburg, Ore. This space will provide the company with increased flexibility and operational capacity.
“We’re excited about the opportunity that this acquisition gives us for growth and diversification,” says Dave Larecy, CEO & President of Con-Vey, who spearheaded the purchase. “This expansion allows us to continue building on our legacy of innovation while increasing our manufacturing capacity.”
The facility, formerly occupied by Orenco Composites, was officially acquired on January 22, 2025. Over the coming months, Con-Vey will begin relocating select personnel into the office and manufacturing spaces, ramping up operations to accommodate increased demand. Initially, the facility will focus on the assembly and testing of automated equipment, with plans to further expand manufacturing capabilities in the future.
As part of this expansion, Con-Vey is planning to grow its workforce by hiring additional employees at the new facility.
