The Times-Georgian is reporting that Yachiyo, a Japanese auto parts supplier, will be locating not far from Cedar Village, our Carrollton community. The company will be holding a recruitment fair with the Georgia Department of Labor on April 5, in Waco to help Yachiyo Manufacturing of America fill several jobs for their forthcoming plant.
The new plant will be manufacturing plastic fuel tanks and sunroofs for automobiles at its 130,000-square-foot facility on the old Sony Driving Range property, located near the intersection of Columbia Drive and Beulah Church Road, Carrollton.

Yachiyo announced last September it would locate to the Carrollton community, using the 23.5-acre tract owned by Carrollton Payroll Development Authority.
The company indicated at the time that it plans to fill about 230 new jobs.
“The company will bring some high-level management jobs with them, but the majority of the jobs will be hired here,” Jim Camp, attorney for the Carrollton Payroll Development Authority, told the Carroll County Board of Commissioners on Sept. 26. “The jobs will range in scope from manual labor to very specialized jobs.”
