Illinois-based Medical supplies maker Medline Industries Inc. has opened a distribution center in Plainfield, hiring 50 workers.
The company has leased a 180,000-square-foot facility near the Indianapolis International Airport, state economic development
officials said Friday.
Medline employs nearly 6,000 people at 10 manufacturing facilities and 35 distribution centers in North America, delivering
more than 100,000 different products to hospitals, nursing homes and surgery centers.
Company President Bill Abington said in a statement that Medline was drawn by Plainfield’s central location and a work
force with a strong work ethic.
The Indiana Economic Development Corp. offered the company up to $210,000 in performance-based tax credits and $6,000 in
training grants. The town of Plainfield will provide additional property tax abatement at the request of the Hendricks County
Economic Development Partnership.

I have been in training for a short time now but right off I can see that safety and quality are the number one issues, my experience as of late has been a positive one, the employees along with Jeff the plant manager and the operation supervisor as well as the engineers are a highly motivated group of people, what an asset for the area to have and for company's in need of a quality metal products.

While I understand the severity of their actions as well as everyones eagerness to hold them responsible for thier lost funds, these gentlemen did know how to make money. Dispite thier poor decisions over the ownership of Fair they had made several wise investments which paid them greatly. This proves they do have the potential to rebuild so they can repay. I do not feel they should live the life of luxuary but given an opportunity could they find ways of repaying the debts? They are doing nothing now but being a burden on tax payers. Just a thought!!!!!
