06/13/2008
Sony DADC, a supply-chain provider that operates within the Sony Corporation of America, will expand its Blu-ray disc manufacturing operations in Terre Haute, Indiana. The company plans to invest more than $113 million to add to its current 1 million-square-foot facility, including expanding its packaging and distribution center to handle the increased production volume. The project will add approximately 85 new jobs for professional staff, engineers, technicians, and operators. The facility currently produces 425,000 Blu-ray discs per day, along with compact discs, DVDs, and UMDs. The state of Indiana has offered Sony DADC up to $975,000 in performance-based tax credits and up to $655,000 in training grants based on the company's investment and job creation agreements.
