Jobs Announcement Set For Shelbyville

Pence has written to U.S. Trade Representative Michael Froman asking for an investigation.

Governor Mike Pence and Shelbyville Mayor Tom DeBaun will make an economic development announcement Tuesday morning. They will be joined by executives from a Japan-based company to discuss jobs coming to the area.

In March, Krone North America announced it was moving its headquarters from Tennessee to Shelbyville. The $12.5 million investment was expected to create 100 high-wage jobs by 2021. 

Tuesday’s announcement comes more than a week after California-based Determine Inc. (Nasdaq: DTRM) announced it was relocating its headquarters to Carmel, bringing 24 new high-wage jobs by 2019.

The jobs announcement is scheduled for 11:45 a.m. at 400 Northbrook Drive, south of I-74 in Shelbyville.
