“This strategic investment and long-term commitment to developing the site in Mississippi was made easier by the clear support that the state and county showed to welcoming us to this area. We intend to make use of the impressive local infrastructure available to help us efficiently move our products in and out of the state and to become a respected part of the local business community,” said Antonio Mancuso, president of Mancuso Chemicals Ltd.

According to officials, Mancuso Chemicals is establishing a logistics distribution center in Pachuta to which the company will import products from its facilities in Canada and Peru. Mancuso Chemicals eventually plans to expand the Pachuta site to include manufacturing operations and extend its reach into the Mexican market.

The Mississippi Development Authority (MDA) is providing assistance through the Mississippi Flexible Tax Incentive program. Clarke County and the village of Pachuta are assisting with the project.

Mancuso Chemicals plans to complete the project and fill the new jobs over the next five years.
