Gee I was wrong ..... it is worth giving up our manufacturing base when we can get this kind of market penetration! (snickering)

Wrigleys is beefing up their plant here in Flowery Branch GA to produce Altoids and other stuff. They recently bought Altoids from the British. and moved much of the production to the U.S.
