In the latest testament to the enduring job-creation potential of Japanese investors in Georgia, Nichiha USA is set to add another building at its Macon site, expanding production there for the second time since setting up shop 16 years ago. Robby Fountain, chairman of the Macon-Bibb County Industrial Authority, said in a news release that the company has been a “staple international industry” since it landed in Macon. “The addition and expansion of their existing plant and the projected growth of their workforce speak to the great value that our community brings to Nichiha and all our existing industry partners,” Mr. Fountain said.
