The company, which makes tools and parts for the drilling and trenching industries, could get up to $210,000 in performance-based tax credits and $35,000 in training grants from Indiana Economic Development Corp. if it follows through.
The city of Shelbyville also gave the firm a property-tax abatement on new equipment at the request of the Shelby County Development Corp.
Earlier this year, DrillingWorld invested about $1.7 million to combine its two Indianapolis-area facilities into a 59,000-square-foot facility on the southeast side of Shelbyville. It opened in April.
The company has started hiring warehouse and manufacturing staff for the Shelbyville site.
