$3.3M Facility Headed to Madisonville

By Jacque Day

Madisonville, Ky. – A new facility slated for Madisonville carries a $3.3 million dollar investment and will eventually create nearly 100 new jobs. That announcement came Thursday from Governor Steve Beshear. Clark Associates will locate a new distribution center in Hopkins County to serve e-commerce food-service and equipment supply distributor WEBstaurantStore Inc. The new distribution center will take over the 148,000-square-foot facility formerly occupied by Autoliv Corporation. Initially the company expects to hire 50 people, growing to 95 jobs over the next several years. Hiring begins this summer.
