National Grid has approved an economic development grant for Fontrick Door Inc., a Batavia-based custom window and hardwood door manufacturer that is undertaking a major expansion.
National Grid will provide up to $158,000 toward upgrades of Fontrick Door’s electric infrastructure.
The grant was made through National Grid’s Electrical Capital Investment Incentive program, which provides financial incentives to qualifying commercial and industrial customers who are expanding operations and need to upgrade electric infrastructures.
“We’ve been working closely with Fontrick Door on this project, which includes a major re- organization of manufacturing space, and will lead to increased production and efficiencies,” said National Grid Regional Manager Ken Kujawa.
The Electrical Capital Investment Incentive program is among a suite of economic development programs offered by National Grid.
