Press Release:
TexAmericas Center (TAC) is pleased to announce immediate hiring at Expal USA, which opened its doors at TexAmericas Center in 2017 and has since brought more jobs to the region, expanded its operations, and has provided economic stability.
Expal USA recently announced a 5-year contract with the United States Department of Defense, which will spur immediate hiring and result in a $1.4 million investment in its facilities at TexAmericas Center.
The company will hire 44 people by the end of the year, including entry level positions starting at $18 per hour. Expal USA offers its employees a 401(k) plan with options for company matches, medical, dental and vision benefits, 15 vacation days along with a 2-2-3 schedule.
