PERRY – ADR, a leading manufacturer of axles, suspensions and braking systems for agricultural and industrial machinery, said that is strengthened its presence on American soil by acquiring a site in the town of Perry, Iowa, for the construction of the new headquarters of ADR Axles USA Inc.
With over 70 years of experience and 14 locations worldwide, ADR offers tailor-made solutions as well as the innovation and quality of its products. Already established in the U.S. market, ADR is taking a strategic step forward to provide even more direct and timely support to its customers and to strengthen the partnerships with key players in the industry. Geographical proximity is not only a logistical advantage but also a key element in supporting customers with ADR products throughout their growth journey.
The new plant will cover an area of 6,000 m² (64,500 square feet) in the town of Perry (NW of Des Moines), in Dallas county, Iowa. Starting from the end of 2026, it will be ADR’s production and distribution center dedicated to the U.S. market. It will have 35 new employees in the initial phase, a number expected to increase over the following three years.
“The opening of ADR Axles USA Inc. represents a strategic step for ADR, allowing us to better serve our customers in the United States and support them in their growth”, said Flavio Radrizzani, ADR Group President.
“This is an exciting challenge. We want to offer our U.S. customers the same excellence, quality, and expertise that have distinguished our services worldwide for years”, said Chiara Radrizzani, ADR Group Strategy Vice President.
According to Perry Economic Development, “When ADR Axles explored expansion opportunities across several states, Perry stood out thanks to preparation, collaboration, and a shared vision for growth of the industrial park. Perry Economic Development had already done the groundwork by certifying and preparing sites, making it easy to showcase our community as ready for opportunity. Together with our partners, we demonstrated how global business can take root in small-town Iowa. Special thanks to the city of Perry, Greater Dallas County Alliance, and all our partners for their teamwork and leadership.”
