North Vernon company plans to add jobs

Decatur Plastic Products, a manufacturer of custom injection-molded plastic parts and components, plans to expand its operations in North Vernon. The website, areadevelopment.com is reporting that the company plans to create up to 40 new jobs by 2019.

According to the report, the company will invest more than $3 million to update its equipment and provide training opportunities for employees at its facility located near Highway 7 in Jennings County. Decatur Plastic will also offer its employees training, as well as leadership and career development courses.

The website is reporting that the Indiana Economic Development Corporation offered the company up to $75,000 in training grants based on the company’s job creation plans. These incentives are performance-based, meaning that until Hoosiers are hired, the company is not eligible to claim incentives.
