A Whitley County company that makes fabric, tools, hardware and sewing supplies for sailors is planning a $3.25 million expansion, creating up to 50 new jobs by the end of 2024.
Sailrite Enterprises Inc. announced it will expand its existing 71,000-square-foot headquarters at 2390 East 100 South, just southeast of Columbia City, and equip it with expanded supplies of stainless steel rigging, webbing, fabric and leather, as well as new foam packaging machinery and material handling equipment.
The 32,500-square-foot expansion, a portion of which will include professional office space, will enable Sailrite to grow its team and serve expanded markets in the DIY sewing arena, a news release from the Indiana Economic Development Corp. said.

What started as an attempt at election law reform in Indiana has been pared down to a single provision that would write into law something that is already being done – require voters give either a driver’s license number or the last four digits of their Social Security number when requesting an absentee ballot online.
Senate Bill 353, authored by Sen. Erin Houchin, R-Salem, originally required proof of citizenship to register to vote and required risk-limiting audits be done after every election – something that’s been recommended by election integrity experts for years but has never been done in Indiana, as a way to verify the number of votes tabulated by voting machines.
