Kodak developing its west Georgia facility


The Rochester, NY-based firm plans to invest $15 million dollars in its existing Columbus facility. The expansion will add some 50 jobs to the plant, which currently employs 250 workers.

Local and company officials held a groundbreaking ceremony at the site on Friday. The plant makes specialized equipment for the digital printing industry.

Officials expect the project to be completed by the summer of 2009.
