As we reported two weeks ago, Caterpillar officially opened its new $140 million motor grader plant in North Little Rock on Wednesday.
The company, which is the world’s largest maker of mining and construction equipment, announced in early 2009 that it would bring the plant to Arkansas and hire up to 600 workers.
Our content partner, Fox 16 News, covers the event and notes that 200 workers have already been trained and are making new graders.
