Unified Legacy to Create 500 New Jobs in Macon-Bibb County

Unified Legacy, a Georgia-based precision metal fabrication and manufacturing company, is expanding its existing footprint in Macon-Bibb County. The company will invest $125 million in a new manufacturing facility in Macon, creating 500 new jobs over the next several years in Bibb County.

"Georgia's manufacturing sector continues to grow because companies like Unified Legacy benefit from our strong workforce, infrastructure, and partnership approach," said Gov. Brian P. Kemp. "We are proud that this Georgia-based company is reinforcing its commitment to the people of this state through this expansion."

Unified Legacy manufactures complex products and components for the defense, aerospace, data center, and industrial markets. Through advanced machining, welding, and fabrication capabilities, the company delivers custom solutions, including ground support equipment, welded assemblies, generator enclosures, fuel storage tanks, and precision-machined components. Unified Defense, its existing manufacturing facility, has been operating in Byron, GA, since 2022.

Eric Williams, CEO of United Legacy, said: "Georgia has been central to our growth from day one, and this investment in Macon-Bibb County reflects our confidence in the region and its workforce. As demand continues to grow, this new facility expands our capabilities, increases capacity, and positions us to take on larger, more complex work. We are committed to building for the long term here in Middle Georgia. This expansion is about creating real opportunities for people. We are excited to add 500 jobs across skilled trades, engineering, and support roles, and to invest in developing a strong, capable workforce. Our goal is to create careers that people are proud of and build a team that continues to raise the standard for what we do."

Unified Legacy's new manufacturing facility will be located at Barnes Ferry Road in Macon, with construction expected to begin in 2026. The company plans to hire for manufacturing, skilled trades, engineering, logistics, quality control, and administrative roles.
