Cirrus has announced the expansion of its Grand Forks manufacturing facility. The general aviation aircraft manufacturer will invest $13 million to add 30,000 square feet to the current 165,000 square foot manufacturing facility.
The expansion will support manufacturing of the SR Series and the Vision Jet, with additional equipment, storage, technical tools, as well as new jobs expected to be added over the next five years.
“We have worked closely with the Grand Forks legislature and community to invest in the growth and expansion of a facility that not only supports manufacturing the best-selling single-engine piston aircraft and best-selling jet—right here in Grand Forks,” said Cirrus CEO Zean Nielsen. “Cirrus is deeply committed to safety, innovation, quality and contributing to the long-term economic vitality of the region.”
The Cirrus Grand Forks expansion is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2026.
