Wednesday, December 19th, 2018

In partnership with the Sumter County Development Authority, Advantage Plus USA plans to open their facility on Brady Road in Americus, Georgia.  An enameling focused company in the glass lining industry, Advantage Plus USA plans a full-scale production in 2019.   

Enameling is a useful tool in pharmaceutical, chemical, dyes and pesticides industries.  The process is used with many equipment types, including reactors, tanks, heat exchangers, agitators, pipe fittings, valves, instrumentation systems, manhole covers and more.  

According to Barbara Grogan, Executive Director of the Authority, “By bringing this new industry to Sumter County, Advantage Plus USA will provide engineering-level job opportunities for specialized skills.  A multimillion-dollar investment in facility and equipment will create up to ten new jobs for the community.  Shailesh and Sneha Patel are great proponents and actively engaged citizens in Sumter County, and we gladly support their endeavors.”
