BACKGROUND

Gaston County developed an economic grant policy to provide global advanced manufacturing companies and distribution facilities with high quality locations. Project Huskey is considering a total investment of $100,000,000 to establish a 750,000 sq. ft. warehouse and distribution facility in Gaston County. Gaston County Economic Development is requesting a Level Four Incentive Grant under the existing policy in place. It is anticipated that the Company’s capital investment and operations will generate significant ad valorem tax, sales tax and other revenues to Gaston County.
