A company that serves brands and retailers by producing displays and visual merchandising has unveiled plans to expand in Chattanooga by investing $15 million and creating 100 new jobs.
"We're excited to grow our presence in Chattanooga and create jobs locally," said Bryan Hair, Marketing Alliance Group president and CEO.
The company also offers a variety of printing services, and continues to develop state-of-the-art manufacturing processes for metal, wood, and custom plastics, according to the Chattanooga Area Chamber of Commerce.
The new facility will be Marketing Alliance Group's third in Chattanooga, in addition to several in Calhoun and Dalton, and will expand the company's wood and metal manufacturing for major home improvement stores and the floor covering industry.
EPB, TVA and the Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development assisted in pulling together incentives for the company's expansion into a 500,000-square-foot space.
"When an existing company expands, they are not just making an investment in our community they are investing in our people," said Chattanooga Mayor Andy Berke. "These are 100 good, middle-class jobs created for Chattanoogans."
