Acculevel's $8.7 Million Investment for New Headquarters in Missouri
Acculevel Expands into Missouri with Major Investment
Acculevel, Inc., a leading company in foundation repair and basement waterproofing, is taking significant strides in its expansion efforts within the United States. Announced on August 29, 2025, the company is investing a remarkable $8.7 million to establish three new regional headquarters in Missouri: Kennett, Sarcoxie, and Smithville. This ambitious move is set to create 41 new jobs at each location, significantly boosting local employment with wages that exceed the county average.
The announcement, which was made during a press conference attended by Missouri's Governor Mike Kehoe, emphasized the positive economic impact this expansion will have on the communities involved. Governor Kehoe remarked, "Acculevel's decision to establish three facilities in Missouri demonstrates confidence in our state's ideal business climate. We're proud that this company is investing and creating good-paying jobs in these communities and look forward to its continued success."
Founder and CEO of Acculevel, Andy Beery, reflected on the importance of this move by stating, "Our decision to expand into Missouri reflects both confidence in these communities and our commitment to contributing to their future. By creating good-paying jobs, supporting local suppliers, and delivering unmatched foundation repair expertise, we're investing in the economic strength and stability of the region. We're proud to be part of Missouri's growth story."
Strategic Location and Benefits
The selection of Missouri for expansion was based on its strategic central location and robust highway network, facilitating ease of access to customers across the Midwest. This initiative is not only designed to enhance service delivery to homeowners but also to fortify regional partnerships with local suppliers and community organizations. Acculevel is poised to significantly improve response times, reliability, and service capacities through localized operations that include dedicated crews and inventory.
Community leaders from Kennett, Sarcoxie, and Smithville have expressed their enthusiasm towards Acculevel's investment. Melissa Combs, Director of Economic Development in Dunklin County, stated, "We are thrilled to welcome Acculevel to Kennett. This investment means more than new jobs – it represents new opportunities for our residents and continued growth for our county."
Similarly, Amy Kauffman, Executive Director of MOKAN Partnership, shared her optimistic view, "Acculevel's decision to expand here is a commitment to Sarcoxie's people and the potential of our region. These new, high-paying jobs will boost economic growth and deliver meaningful, long-term benefits to our local communities."
And Cynthia Wagner, City Administrator of Smithville, noted, "Smithville is proud to be part of Acculevel's Missouri expansion. Their investment will have a lasting impact on our community, bringing high-quality jobs and reaffirming that Smithville is a great place to do business and build a future."
Economic Development Support
Acculevel's expansion aligns seamlessly with Missouri's economic development goals. Michelle Hataway, Director of the Missouri Department of Economic Development, remarked, "We're grateful for the trust Acculevel has placed in our state as it establishes these new locations. The Department of Economic Development is excited to support this company as it invests, creates jobs, and helps Missourians prosper in Kennett, Sarcoxie, and Smithville."
This expansion is anticipated to spur economic activity and development across these areas, positively affecting local businesses and the overall community landscape.
Looking Ahead
Construction for the new facilities is set to conclude by the end of 2026 for both Kennett and Sarcoxie, with Smithville's timeline closely following behind. This creates a promising outlook for the immediate future as job creation and economic enhancement activities ramp up in these regions.
