According to an Associated Press news report, Green Bay Converting, Green Bay, Wis., USA, will open a plant in Mississippi to make paper towels and tissue, creating 300 new jobs. Green Bay Converting and Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant announced the plans this past Monday in Hattiesburg.
Green Bay Converting will invest $48 million in the plant, which converts tissue base sheets into finished products, AP reported. CEO Greg Santanga bought the separate Hattiesburg Paper Co. in 2005 from Kimberly-Clark Corp. That company has 186 employees.
Green Bay Converting makes a wide variety of tissue-related paper products. Founded in 1999, it has more than 300 employees.
