Nylon Company At Former Dupont Site In Hixson Plans $50 Million Expansion
Officials said Tuesday that the firm now manufacturing nylon at the old Dupont plant in Hixson plans a $50 million expansion.
Kordsa site supervisor Tommy Johnson said the project, which will include construction of a new building, will add 200 new jobs.
Senator Bo Watson said, “This major expansion of Kordsa is a testament to the unique assets of Chattanooga. By actively engaging with the private sector, incentivizing growth, and cutting red tape, companies like Kordsa are expanding their operations, strengthening the economy and creating good-paying jobs in Hamilton County and across the state.”
