Drapery Firm Chooses Fayetteville Location for Plant
OAK HILL Fayetteville and Mount Hope gain a new drapery plant as Milton Stern Associates of New York announces plans to start operations by January 1 1967. Pat R Hamilton attorney for the communities says interviews drew strong interest from potential workers. The project seeks a $350000 SBA loan, with local share around $40000, not raised by stock sale. The firm will start with about 100 employees and aim for 200 later.
