From Area Development Magazine:

“We felt immediately very welcomed. Gaston County provides an excellent manufacturing environment for our needs. The close proximity to major interstates and airport allows us to service most customers within a day. We can engage with Gaston College in developing young skilled talent for our operation and support their apprenticeship program. The small-town community feeling is like the area where our Germany Headquarters is located. […] This investment is made possible because our owners Matthias and Juergen Knoll believe in our local team and the strength of the North American market. This venture is part of their international initiative within the KNOLL Group.†[…]

“We are excited to have another global manufacturer choose North Carolina for its headquarters. […] This decision affirms our state’s reputation of having a strong manufacturing workforce and great quality of life.†[…]
