Shinsung Petrochemical Plans Toombs County, Georgia, Manufacturing Operations

10/15/2024
Shinsung Petrochemical, an automotive supplier, plans to establish manufacturing operations in Toombs County, Georgia. The $11.2 million project is expected to create 30 jobs.

The investment will include the construction of a new facility located at 1407 Highway 1 North in Lyons.

“We enjoyed visiting the location of our future facility in Lyons this week and celebrating our next step in the state of Georgia with our new partners in the community,” said Chan Woo Park, COO of Shinsung. “We look forward to joining Georgia’s network of automotive suppliers, providing adhesive and sealant solutions for manufacturers nearby. We are excited to be in Toombs County in Georgia.”

“Eighty-three percent of expansions and new locations from the past fiscal year are on their way to rural communities, delivering more than 18,300 new jobs and $12.5 billion in investment to hardworking Georgians in communities like Toombs County,” noted Governor Brian Kemp. “We are excited that Shinsung is joining that growing network of suppliers locating in rural communities and creating new opportunities for all to succeed, no matter their zip code.”

Director of Project Implementation and Supplier Strategy Alyce Thornhill represented the Georgia Department of Economic Development’s (GDEcD) Global Commerce team on the project in partnership with the Toombs County Development Authority, Georgia Ports Authority, and Georgia Power.

“It has been very rewarding to witness the transformation of Toombs Corporate Center at U.S. Highway 1 in Lyons over the last few years,” added Chair Tim Truxel, Toombs County Development Authority. “We truly appreciate the corporate partners we already have and look forward to a new prosperous relationship with Shinsung Petrochemical, Inc. Congratulations to Toombs County, the State of Georgia, and Shinsung Petrochemical, Inc., for this exciting opportunity!”

Shinsung specializes in automotive sealant among other products. The company will be a supplier for Hyundai Motor Group and the Metaplant in Bryan County.
