Whereas, Michelin made another commitment to South Carolina by locating its North American headquarters in Greenville in 1985; and
Whereas, Michelin now employs more than 9,000 persons in its South Carolina facilities and has invested $1.5 billion in this State, thereby significantly contributing to our economic growth and development; and
Whereas, Michelin is proactive in supporting education throughout this State and continually gives back to the communities in which it works; and
Whereas, Michelin's positive experiences have been influential in attracting other major enterprises to South Carolina; and
Whereas, Michelin and South Carolina have worked together as partners for progress and prosperity with a long-term view; and
Whereas, Michelin, on October 11, 1995, is celebrating its twentieth anniversary of manufacturing and research and development in the United States. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
