Springfield manufacturers double down with jobs, investments (Hundreds of jobs in Ohio)

Springfield’s economy has always had a heavy emphasis on manufacturing, but its latest jobs wins are adding a high-tech twinge to that.

The Clark County city hailed new facilities by Topre and Silfex Corp. as economy-shifting in their potential. Japanese auto parts manufacturer Topre and Eaton-based silicon crystal producer Silfex have each committed to tens of millions of dollars in investment and hundreds of jobs. With help wanted signs on the doors, they say the city is ripe for investment.

For its part, Silfex sees Springfield as a prime market to find good production workers. It’s already one of the largest employers in the region staffing 700 people at its Eaton and Springfield works, and the new $223 million, 350,000-square-foot facility at 1000 Titus Road will grow that closer to 1,000.

“They’re both ramping up and aggressively hiring,” Tom Franzen, assistant city manager of economic development for the city, said. “It’s a matter of finding the right people.”

What, the DemocRAT who gave North Korea it's Nuclear weapons capability?

DemocRAT policies would Destroy Jobs, particular in the energy producing sector. They just came out against Nuclear energy and I thought that was Green these days. The Green new deal would decimate the work force.

Trump wants to make new jobs while DemocRATS want to destroy them.

America, WAKE UP! The B*stards are at the door ready to take your jobs and everything you have. Vote the B*stards OUT!
