(GWINNETT- METRO ATLANTA) March 20, 2019 – Geo-Hydro Engineers, a leader in environmental consulting services, geotechnical engineering, and construction materials testing, joined Partnership Gwinnett to announce the expansion of its operations in the City of Lawrenceville, Georgia.
Geo-Hydro’s 4,100 SF facility located at 595 Old Norcross Rd. in the City of Lawrenceville, will house regional office space, as well as a soil and concrete laboratory. The company chose this location to better serve their Gwinnett clients and to accommodate future growth.
“We are excited about our expansion within Gwinnet County,” said Jessica Behmke, Lawrenceville Branch Manager for Geo-Hydro Engineers. “This expansion will allow us to better serve our existing clients and the community at large. We look forward to the opportunity to make Gwinnett great as both the county, and Geo-Hydro grows.”
The new Lawrenceville location will be staffed by a registered professional geologist, a senior engineering technician, and a business development specialist. The company is also working to hire additional engineering technicians, and a staff engineer.
“We love to hear about Gwinnett companies who are growing and expanding here in our community,” said Gwinnett County Commission Chair Charlotte Nash. “The success of Geo-Hydro is further proof that Gwinnett is a leader in the technology industry, and we have the resources and workforce to help these types of companies succeed.”
Geo-Hydro was founded in 1980 and strives to “solve today’s problems and prevent tomorrow’s headaches.” The company is headquartered in Kennesaw, Ga. and employs 95 people across five offices in Georgia and North Carolina.
City of Lawrenceville Mayor Judy Jordan Johnson added, “Geo-Hydro’s investment in Lawrenceville serves to fuel local economy and create job opportunities for our residents. We are thankful for their choice in community and look forward growing with them in the future.”
