Eaton, a switch gear electronic manufacturer that designs and manufactures electrical equipment to power data centers, utilities, and industries, announced it is moving into the former Blue Buffalo space.
The $30 million investment will bring more than 200 engineering, production, and manufacturing jobs into the community. The city said this is not just an economic win for Bellevue, but the entire state of Nebraska.
