Virginia Beats Neighbor to Host 32,000-SF Document Center

CLARKSVILLE, VA-Document imaging and management services concern the DRS Group has decided to establish a new 32,000-sf document conversion supercenter in Mecklenburg County. DRS chose the Commonwealth over alternative option, North Carolina. The Manhattan-based company will spend about $1 million to open the facility in a shell building within the 80-acre Lake Country Industrial Park.

“As The DRS Group continues to grow and expand their operations in the South, specifically the Virginia market, having a supercenter in a strategic location such as Clarksville allows us to improve the service levels to existing accounts while opening up the opportunity to secure new business,” DRS COO Paul Solomon notes. “After spending several days in the area, it became obvious to all of us that Mecklenburg County has a strong workforce, which will allow us to open such a center and not miss a beat.” The facility will create about 115 new jobs.
