Recent growth, latest expansion could add up to 600 jobs to Gordon County:
-Even with a 13 percent unemployment rate, things are looking much brighter for Gordon County. On Monday, a $50 million expansion to surface countertop manufacturer LG Hausys America. That means 80 new jobs and a $50 million investment in the community. (More on Hausys' jobs)
-Add that to the 200 jobs already created at Engineered Floors since that plant opened in August and new reports that say the company could grow by another 300 jobs, 200 more than announced during a job fair last June.
-That could could mean close to a 600-job swing upward by the time hiring is done both at LG Hausys and Engineered Floors.
