2/3/2012

LIMA, Ohio — A Lima industrial park is one of two finalists for a $300 million manufacturing project, according to the vice president of the Allen County Economic Development Group.

Jeff Sprague said a company that he would not name has narrowed its site list to Lima and a site in Indiana. Mr. Sprague declined to put a number of jobs with the project, but said it would be located at Gateway Commerce Park, at State Route 65 and I-75.

The development group is working with Toledo-based Center for Innovative Food Technology to get Gateway certified as a food park.
