GZ MEDIA OPENS NEW PRESSING PLANT IN BURLINGTON, CANADA

15.5.2017
Burlington can now call itself the vinyl record capital of Canada.

The new plant boasts five new double record presses — freshly manufactured in GZ — that can turn out 3.6 million vinyl records per year.
"There's nobody else (in Canada) that can do our volume," Precision vice-president Gerry McGhee said in an interview. "Our Phase 2 expansion will bring production up to 6 million and that will make us the second largest in North America."
The company employs about 40 staff members and there are plans to soon add a second shift and then a third that would boost the staff number to more than 100.
"We also want to support independent labels and independent bands," McGhee says. "Most plants will shy away from anything under 300. We welcome that business."
