Bluestem Brands Expands Facility in Right to Work Georgia
Bluestem Brands is announcing plans to expand its current location in Eatonton, Georgia. In order to do this, they are investing $1 million toward the project. This will allow them to double their presence in the area. They will also create over 130 new jobs. So this will be a great economic opportunity for those in Putnam County.
From Area Development Magazine:
“Bluestem’s decision to substantially expand their presence in Georgia is yet another example of how the state’s strong logistics infrastructure and workforce training programs continue to support e-commerce and create jobs and opportunities for hardworking Georgians. […] I thank Bluestem for their job-creating investment, and I appreciate the work of our world-class economic development team to support our existing industries and helping them grow right here in the Peach State.” […]
“As I’ve said before, when a company invests in Georgia, they become a Georgia company. […] We’ve seen incredible growth in e-commerce in recent years that has only accelerated during the COVID-19 pandemic[.] Georgia is uniquely suited to effectively serve these companies. It’s a pleasure to see this Georgia company more than double their presence in Eatonton.”
