Investing in Tazewell County
Brian August 7th, 2006
Here is some good news for Tazewell County.
Jennmar Corp. of Virginia, Inc., a subsidiary of Frank Calandra, Inc. & Subsidiaries and a provider of quality roof and standing support products for the mining and tunneling industry, will invest $6 million to build a new facility in Tazewell County[.]
. . .
Jennmar . . . chose the State of Virginia due to many positives for a manufacturing facility. Virginia has a fair state corporate tax structure, is politically corporate friendly to include workmen’s compensation and environmental laws and is pro-active in enhancing future business. Tazewell County offers excellent banking and municipality services.
Congrats to Tazewell. Not to take anything away from them, but I am more than ready to see some companies investing in Dickenson County like this.
This project will also get a nice boost from Governor Kaine, in the form of a $150,000 grant from the Governor’s Opportunity Fund.
