Hytrol Conveyor Company invests $500,000 in A-State CREST Center

Hytrol Conveyor Company has committed a $500,000 gift to the Career Readiness Education and Skills Training (CREST) Center at Arkansas State University. This investment establishes Hytrol as the founding industry partner for the center, which is currently under construction in Jonesboro.

The CREST Center aims to bridge the gap between education and industry by preparing the Northeast Arkansas workforce for future demands. In recognition of the contribution, the ASU System Board of Trustees has named the primary workforce training space within the facility the ‘Hytrol Workforce Training Room’. This room will be part of the first phase of the center’s three-phase construction process.
