“Our customers, our suppliers are in the U.S. , mostly in the Midwest. That's where the growth is,” he told the Register-Star. “So this is where we needed to be. The labor force here is key.”

“我們的客戶，還有我們的供應商，在美國，大部分集中在中西部地區。那是我們業務增長的地區，”他告訴the Register-Star.：“所以這是我們選擇在那里投資原因。當然當地勞動力充沛也是關鍵的因素。”

He added that the company hopes to have 75 employees there within five years.

他補充說，新公司計劃在五年內將雇員人數增加至75人。
