Shoe manufacturing company bringing 158 jobs to Carthage, average salary $32K


A bill authorizing a tax abatement for a company planning to operate a manufacturing plant and bringing 158 jobs will be taken up by Carthage City Council when it meets 6:30 p.m. Monday.

Belleville Shoe Manufacturing, Belleville, Illinois, plans to expand into Missouri for the first time, will renovate an existing building and invest $2.2 million into the facility. 








If the council approves the measure as expected, the company would receive an annual tax abatement of $3,500 for the next 10 years.

The jobs would pay an average of $32,668 annually, with all full-time employees receiving health insurance.

Belleville Shoe Manufacturing makes military combat boots.
