(AP) -- The South Carolina Commerce Department says plastic maker Jatco Inc. will invest $2 million and employ 39 people in a new production facility in Greenwood.
The agency said Monday the California company is renovating an existing building and expects to begin production before the end of the year.
Chief executive Paul Appelblom says demand for his company's plastic molding products is growing. Jatco's customers range from printing to the medical sector.
The facility would be Jatco's first on the East Coast.
