Beretta U.S.A. Corp., located in Accokeek, Maryland, announced today that it has decided to move its manufacturing capabilities from its existing location to a new production facility that it is building in Gallatin, Tennessee.

I have a niece thats wanting to get a job there too.

Wonder who that is building across from Hoganaes.
leave States that don’t support the constitution desolate.
I still think it was Fred.
Baretta:
Biretta:
Hope that makes everything clear.
Always tickles me how Yankees pronounce Gallatin
The town needs it...
Anyone know who Albert was?
The Baretta’s manufactured from today until production begins in Tennessee will be inferior. The union will gurantee quality is poor
Baretta, don’t leave home without it!
Sadly, Maryland is south of the Mason Dixon
Good for them!
Most counties offer tax breaks to get companies to relocate here. In the long run it makes sense for the county and even the state. They get a manufacturing company and payroll going to boost the economy. In the short run for the corp it helps them to offset relocation cost and start up cost. The breaks in general are no more than 10 years usually less depending on how much the county itself has vested into it via upgrades to required utilities, roads, etc.
In 1982 Tennessee hit rock bottom in the recession. This time around jobs are still to be had here that pay decent. We have no state income tax and intent to keep it that way, we're a right to work state meaning no union involuntary dues, and we now have a two state house GOP majority for the first time in many decades. Many if not most deals are the end result of a county Commission sponsored recruitment of a corporation into an area needing jobs.
You do understand, don't you, that Maryland is south of the Mason Disxon Line?
Only geographically (not culturally).
Hooray!
New vacant buildings for Obama’s new voters......
I hope Colt Defense follows suit and moves from Conn. to Florida.
Tax relief does not equal “welfare,” unless you’re a commie.
In the civil war, the north had all the industries, especially gun manufacturers. Could the south be re-tooling for a rematch?
tax relief for one business and not all business
is definitely a hand out
No, it’s the Maryland legislature and the governor, giving the middle finger to the residents.
I will keep you in my prayers for good results.
