The first Conner Industries facility in Alabama is up and running in east Montgomery off Smothers Road and will hold a Chamber of Commerce ribbon cutting at 2 p.m. on March 24.
Conner is a national wood packaging supplier with 13 plants from Texas to Virginia, plant manager Bryan Welch said.
"We specialize in the design and manufacture of wood shipping crates, skids and pallets," Welch said. "All of our products are customer-specific. The Montgomery plant service area covers approximately a 100-mile radius."
