Phillips Tank & Structure officially open in Sparksville

By Heather Spoon,
Consultant for Economic Development Authority (EDA)


We are thrilled that Phillips Tank & Structure chose Adair County to locate their business and as of last week, the new plant had a ribbon cutting ceremony in their new home, the former Jimmy Reliford building in Sparksville, KY.

We are looking forward to PTS not only being a part of our community and creating new jobs, but providing hope and opportunity to students in the ACHS Welding Program, giving them a better chance to work where they live.

Economic development takes time.


Spending big dollars in an unknown economic season for our country is a big step for any business. We are thankful for Phillips Tank & Structure's confidence in our community.

Also thankful for the people of Adair County for its support of the EDA, in general. This Board is working multiple avenues to bring careers to our county. It just takes time.

Phillips Tank & Structure chose Adair County to locate their business and as of last week, the new plant had a ribbon cutting ceremony in their new home, the former Jimmy Reliford Drilling Company building in Sparksville, KY. Regional Manager Nikki Shields led the ribbon cutting, flanked by her colleagues Nathan Withers and Christopher Curtis as the team officially began its new role in the regional base of operations for PTS. They were joined for this event by members of the Columbia Adair County Economic Development Authority and the Chamber of Commerce. Those who knew developer Jimmy Reliford will know he is smiling down on these new folks putting his building to work.
