June 2014 Group Watch: Arms Manufacturers Eyeing North Alabama
Local leaders in Huntsville confirmed they are fielding inquiries from other arms manufacturers about expanding into North Alabama. This comes after Remington’s announcement earlier this year about bringing thousands of jobs to Huntsville at its new facility. Local leaders say there have been more than a dozen arms manufacturers who might be considering an expansion into the area. Governor Bentley announced recently during a speech in Huntsville that he believes the addition of Remington will lead to more arms manufacturers coming to the state.
