Macon-Bibb County leaders are scheduled to make a major economic development announcement at 10 a.m. Wednesday.
Gov. Nathan Deal is making the announcement at Terminal Station in downtown Macon. A display set up at the event includes products from Irving Consumer Products Limited. According to its website, the company is "one of North America's leading manufacturers of premium quality private label & store brand household paper products, baby diapers, and children's training pants."
This is Great news for the City!!! Macon seems to be on Fire since Consolidation as far as construction and Jobs coming to the area... It would be nice to see some White Collar jobs in the mist of this Job growth as well..
