In the biker world, Kenny Price is called the "Godfather of Pipes." Today … the godfather brings 30 new jobs to the City of Riders.

Right now, the 45,000-square-foot manufacturing plant for Samson Exhaust is just the beginning of a foundation in the Sturgis Industrial Park. Next April, Samson founder and Chief Executive Officer Price begins to move in heavy equipment and workers. All but two workers will be hired locally.

By July the company will be fully operational, cranking out high-performance exhaust systems for Harley–Davidsons and other types of bikes
