Broekema Beltway USA will expand its Pine City facility with help from $367,500 in state funding through DEED’s Job Creation Fund and Minnesota Investment Fund. The company manufactures advanced sieving conveyor belt systems used across agricultural and industrial markets throughout the Americas.
The $5.6 million project will add a new manufacturing line, including steel forging and upsetting capabilities, robotics integration and automation upgrades. These improvements will modernize production, increase capacity and reduce reliance on manual processes. The expansion is expected to create 12 new jobs within three years, supporting east‑central Minnesota’s growing manufacturing base and strengthening the region’s industrial supply chain.
