A London-based railroad company is bringing over 130 jobs to southeast Kansas. London-based Sicut Enterprises has selected Neodesha as the site of their new North American manufacturing hub, projected to create 132 new full-time jobs over the next five years.

Sicut Enterprises Limited is the European market leader for the manufacture and supply of recycled plastic composite railroad ties. After having successfully completed a range of demanding tests with U.S. Class 1 Railroads, the company now is expanding into North America for the first time.

The company evaluated sites in multiple states before selecting Kansas, purchasing an existing building in Neodesha.
