Cavco Industries, Inc. announced plans to build a state-of-the-art home manufacturing facility in El Mirage, Arizona. The new 616,000 square foot building facility will increase access to affordable housing across multiple states by producing exceptional, affordable HUD-code manufactured and modular single-family homes. Cavco, headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, designs and produces factory-built housing products distributed nationwide through a network of independent and company-owned retailers.
Bill Boor, Cavco President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We are excited about the project, which is a key part of a broader operating strategy in the Southwest region. The shortage of affordable housing in the United States is real, and the El Mirage project will expand Cavco’s capacity to provide quality homes for deserving families in Arizona and surrounding states. We are designing a great place to work in the Phoenix area – reaffirming our commitment to the region and to our Cavco team members.”
Jeff Chrisman, Cavco Regional Vice President overseeing the project added, “We continue to raise the standard in construction processes and equipment in our home building facilities. El Mirage will represent the incorporation of these improvements and beyond, which will make us better and increase our ability to produce more homes.”
Construction of the fully temperature-controlled facility will incorporate modern design, sustainable building practices and advanced manufacturing techniques. The initial project design includes one production line, with an option to expand the facility with a second line for modest additional capital.
We recently broke ground and will move forward under a structured, multi-phase schedule, targeting to be operational by mid-2027. This estimate is dependent upon final permitting and other factors that could impact construction schedules. Additional details about the new facility will be shared as key milestones are reached.
