Wayne Stewart, vice president of Morrisofa Global Inc., stated, "We recently leased a 92,000-sauare-foot building in Mocksville, North Carolina from the Hollingsworth Companies. This location was selected because of the logistical advantage of both North, South, East and West transportation corridors and for the excellent value of the property. Hollingsworth has been great to work with during the entire closing and move in process and we anticipate a good working relationship moving forward."
Terry Bralley, president, Davie County Economic Development Commission, added, "Having a building partner like The Hollingsworth Companies makes a big difference in a rural community. Without a building program this project would not have happened in our community, even though it's a perfect fit for us! We are in the heart of furniture country, and perfectly located on the east coast for logistics. We are excited to have the new jobs added to our community, and welcome Morrisofa Global to Mocksville and Davie County. This is the 8th company attracted with this public/private partnership with The Hollingsworth Companies."
