RALEIGH, (SGRToday.com) - Alamance County, the City of Burlington, and Alamance County Community College joined with the state's Commerce Department to incent CS Carolina, Inc. to create 22 new jobs and invest $7.3 million over the next three years in Burlington.
The project was made possible in part by a performance-based grant from the One North Carolina Fund of up to $80,000. These grants require and are contingent upon local matches.
CS Carolina, Inc. manufacturers, sells and distributes yarn. CS Carolina employs 27 workers in Alamance County. As part of its expansion, the company will relocate its plant from Swepsonville to Burlington, retaining those jobs and adding to the workforce.
“Textile manufacturing is a rich part of North Carolina’s history,” said Commerce Secretary Sharon Decker of the investment. “It is great to see this yarn manufacturer build upon its presence in the Piedmont and double its workforce in Alamance County.”
