State Officials: Volvo Decision Stings, but Momentum Strong
Monday, May 18th, 2015
Georgia’s momentum in the automotive industry remains strong despite recently coming up short for a $500 million Volvo plant to rival South Carolina, officials said Friday.
During a regular board meeting of the state Department of Economic Development, the agency’s head of global commerce likened the Volvo pursuit to being in a “championship game” that featured “lead changes” throughout the recruitment, but didn’t break Georgia’s way.
