Good decent sized project seemingly moving forward despite talk of a recession coming. There is another big project being considered. Hopefully with this company moving forward it encourages the other developers.

The project is expected to create 514 new jobs at an average salary of $135,000, according to Grön Fuels’ Industrial Tax Exemption Program contract. It will also create 3,000 construction jobs. The company will also receive a first-year property tax break of nearly $120 million.

Default Niagara Bottling to Build $160M Facility Near Hammond

"Niagara Bottling, a major national beverage manufacturer, has announced it plans to invest up to $160 million to build a production facility near Hammond. The company said it will create 70 new direct jobs with an average annual salary of $55,000. Louisiana Economic Development estimates the project will result in an additional 100 new indirect jobs, for a total of 170 new jobs in the region....The company expects to begin construction on the 500,000-square-foot facility in the second quarter of 2023."

Great news for that area.

Default Buc-ee's will open $50 million Louisiana Location

Buc-ee's is finally building in Louisiana. However, its nowhere near me ugh lol. Going to build a Ruston location. Will be a good boost for that area.

"A minimum of 200 people will work at the travel center off Interstate 20. The 53,000-square-foot building will have 120 gas pumps.

Construction is set to begin later this year and the center will open by 2025. "

Good to hear.

They should build a few along I-10 in south Louisiana. That would surely draw serious business.

Definitely agree. Lafayette area would be a good spot. But I'm hoping for a Baton Rouge location. However, they messed it up the first time around when it was being considered a while back.

Pretty cool looking new building coming to downtown Shreveport. Not something I expected to see there.
