Thursday Pools, LLC (Thursday), an Indiana-based fibreglass pool company, is set to expand its manufacturing facility and integrate a recently acquired pool brand. These initiatives position Thursday for remarkable growth, with the expanded facility becoming one of the world’s largest fibreglass pool manufacturing centres.
The newly expanded manufacturing facility is strategically designed to meet the increasing demand for Thursday’s products and services. With 100 per cent more production and office space being added, alongside state-of-the-art technology, and enhanced operational capabilities, the expanded facility will allow Thursday to further streamline its manufacturing processes, and expand and expedite production, while continuing to deliver high-quality fibreglass pools to customers throughout the U.S. and Canada. This new expansion is slated for completion in 2024.
As part of its growth strategy, Thursday previously acquired the River Pools brand, and has integrated that brand and key River Pools personnel into its operations. The acquisition brought together the strengths and expertise of both companies.
River Pools brought unsurpassed consumer reach capability through its success in the search engine optimization (SEO) world, and a wealth of installation, and industry knowledge that has been successfully integrated into Thursday’s culture and manufacturing operations to maximize the potential for mutual success of both brands.
“This expansion and the successful integration of these two brands are major milestones for Thursday,” says Bill Khamis, founder and CFO of Thursday. “The addition of River Pools enabled and demanded an investment in our manufacturing facility. With these steps forward, we are reinforcing our position as a market leader and positioning ourselves for even greater success in the future. We are excited about the increased opportunities, expanded capabilities, and growth potential that these developments bring.”
“We were actively seeking a strategic relationship that not only provided the manufacturing capacity our brand could support, but also aligned with us culturally. This combination of company strengths came at the perfect time for River Pools, and it will greatly accelerate our brand presence in the marketplace,” says Jason Hughes, founder of River Pools and now the president of River Pools Franchising.
