Wednesday, May 27th, 2026

SKL’D, a staffing agency specializing in skilled trades and supply chain staffing, celebrated its ribbon cutting, marking its entrance into Gwinnett as an award-winning workforce solutions organization. The company’s growing presence at 3005 Breckinridge Blvd., Suite 250 in unincorporated Duluth further expands Gwinnett’s robust network of workforce and industry partners supporting business growth across the region.
 
“SKL’D was built to challenge the traditional staffing experience and create something better for both employers and talent,” Jon Neff, Co-founder and CEO of SKL’D, said. “Gwinnett provides an ideal location for us because of its strong business community, diverse workforce and strategic access to the region’s manufacturing and logistics network.”
 
SKL’D connects employers with talent across manufacturing, warehousing, logistics, construction, HVAC and industrial sectors. The company’s expansion further strengthens Gwinnett’s nationally recognized workforce ecosystem and growing advanced manufacturing and supply chain industries.
 
Founded with a mission to “elevate every life touched by work,” SKL’D has quickly gained national attention within the staffing industry. In its first year of operation, the company was recognized with ClearlyRated’s 2026 Best of Staffing Award for Service Excellence, earning honors for client, talent, and employee satisfaction—an achievement earned by fewer than 2% of staffing firms nationally.  Additionally, SKL’D was named by Staffing Industry Analysts in the 2026 Best Staffing Firms to Work For list, highlighting the company’s strong workplace culture and employee experience.
 
Gwinnett is home to a robust network of workforce and education partners that support business growth across key industries. Through initiatives focused on talent development, employer engagement and workforce alignment, Partnership Gwinnett continues to help companies connect with the skilled workforce needed to scale and succeed.
 
This focus on workforce collaboration continues through Partnership Gwinnett’s upcoming Workforce Forum on June 25 where employers, educators and industry leaders come together to discuss workforce challenges, talent pipeline solutions, apprenticeships, and strategies for building a future-ready workforce. As companies like SKL’D continue investing in Gwinnett, these collaborative initiatives help ensure businesses have access to the skilled talent needed to grow and compete.
 
“Gwinnett continues to attract companies that recognize the value of strong workforce partnerships and access to talent,” Kevin Carmichael, Senior Vice President of Economic Development for Partnership Gwinnett, said. “SKL’D’s growth in our community reflects the increasing demand for workforce solutions that support the evolving needs of advanced manufacturing, supply chain and skilled trades industries. We are excited to welcome their continued investment in Gwinnett.”
