"build a 75,000-square-foot cold storage facility to store fruit, vegetables and meat. The facility COULD ultimately be expanded to 300,000 square feet, in 75,000-square-foot increments."
Meats from Smithfield, House of Raeford, and Carolina Turkeys are usually shipped frozen - not refrigerated.
Vegetable and fruit are ALWAYS shipped refrigerated and NEVER frozen. It's curious.......
I don't think it will be as many jobs as Chuck says - but - considering that the Port is a designated site under Homeland Security and is patrolled by them, I think any Chinese workers (if that's what you were alluding to) would be checked thoroughly.
What gets me is the uncertainty
"while creating ABOUT 110 jobs."
