The huerfanjournal reports from south central Colorado the Kaspia Group, a New Mexico contracting and real estate services company will begin producing modular homes in the old Kan Build site in Walsenburg, CO early next year. Specializing in affordable housing developments, Kaspia expects to hire 60-65 full time employees who will turn out one modular home a day.
