A new 30,000-square-foot facility has opened on Union Centre Boulevard near Seward Road in Fairfield, bringing together dozens of employees from a fire protection company that has been rapidly expanding across the region. The project is expected to create more than 60 new jobs, according to the City of Fairfield, Ohio - Government, and represents the latest step in a multi-year growth strategy for the company behind it.
The facility belongs to Ryan Fireprotection, a company that specializes in commercial fire protection services and products, including fire extinguishers and sprinkler systems. Built on previously undeveloped land, the site sat at the heart of what the Butler County Finance Authority describes as a key industrial growth corridor for Fairfield. The seed social media report from the city cited an $8 million investment figure, while the available public sources do not establish a single exact total.
Consolidating a Growing Regional Team
The new Fairfield hub consolidates regional operations and relocates 53 existing employees from Cincinnati-Dayton Fire Protection, an Ohio firm. Those workers had outgrown their former office. As reported by the Journal-News, regional leadership said the previous office was bursting at the seams following rapid growth after the merger.
The company has continued expanding its Southwestern Ohio footprint.
From Groundbreaking to Grand Opening
From Groundbreaking to Grand Opening Construction on the Union Centre Boulevard property got under way in August 2025, with building progressing over roughly 13 months before this month's opening. The timeline reflects a company that has also pursued other growth investments.
Company leadership set ambitious targets when planning the Fairfield hub back in May 2025. The finance authority's report notes leadership aimed to expand the local workforce by more than 63% over the following several years, a goal tied to the company's growth and investment plans.
