"The
abundance of natural resources and willingness to aid our
efforts of expansion and growth helped finalize the decision
to relocate to Russellville. The availability
of electricity, natural gas and water, which was limited
in Salem, has allowed for the growth that we have come to
expereince since moving to this area."
