Textile recycling company Sortworthy is planning to relocate to Northwest Arkansas and invest $3 million in a new facility that will create 40 jobs over the next five years. The move, set to take place in early 2025, aims to help divert textile waste from landfills by repurposing unwanted clothing and textiles into sellable items. Sortworthy sees an opportunity to turn waste into resources and create solutions for a greener future.
Northwest Arkansas was chosen as the new location due to its thriving business ecosystem, commitment to sustainability, and sense of community. The company looks forward to being part of the region and working with local communities to drive innovation and create jobs.
The exact location of Sortworthy’s new facility is still being determined, with the company searching for a site in the Bentonville area between 60,000 and 90,000 square feet. The company plans to keep the location confidential until it is acquired. Sortworthy’s mission is to reduce textile waste and pollution by repurposing used clothing and creating new materials from them.
