Some of the Northern plants are relocating. The non union labor force is a draw as there can be more flexibility with the workers and some what lower wages. The cost of living is also lower here. Some manufacturers in the North are reopening plants that stood idle for decades that had outsourced to China. The cost of manufacturing in China has risen over the yeas. I hope the new people in charge of economic development incentives here in Century will continue to contact and actively pursue this dream and vision. I believe it is very plausible and possible. Starting a business is daunting but a major manufacturing company relocating or branching out could easily happen here.
