Procter & Gamble To Build Utah Plant

Manufacturer of Bounty, Charmin and Puffs says the new facility will make paper products to serve the western United States.

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Procter & Gamble Co. says it will build a manufacturing plant for paper products in Box Elder County.
 
The $300 million investment in northwestern Utah will be up and running in 2010 with at least 300 jobs.
 
The announcement comes a week after Utah offered tax breaks that could be worth as much as $85 million. Construction will start next year.
 
Procter & Gamble says the factory will serve markets in the western U.S. The company makes paper towels, toilet paper and facial tissue under the names Bounty, Charmin and Puffs.
