ST. AUGUSTA -- A St. Augusta business is building a new, larger facility with the hopes to move in by the start of the new year.

B&F Fastener Supply is in the process of building a 20,000 square foot facility about a block away from it's current location, on 67th Avenue South in St. Augusta.

Ryan Shaw is the Vice President of Sales for B&F. He says the business has steadily been growing and they need more space.

"Our St. Cloud Market has seen tremendous growth, we needed to grow in size to fit more product, for more customers. It's been a really great move for us and we're excited about the future."

B&F is a Ramsey based company, they specialize in providing industrial products such bolts, cables, cutting tools and several other items.

Shaw says they opened their current St. Augusta location in 2008. With moving into the larger building, he says they expect to hire more staff.

"As we continue to grow we need to grow infrastructure within that facility. There absolutely will be more opportunity moving forward. We hope the more the merrier of course but the market will dictate at what pace we grow and we'll have to add from there."

B&F Fastener Supply plans to move in to its new spot this January.
