GEORGIA (From news reports) -- Gov. Brian Kemp announced a company that makes baby diapers and other items will be investing $418 million to expand its footprint in Bibb County and create 600 new jobs.

In addition to baby diapers, First Quality Baby Products, LLC makes training pants, and a full line of adult incontinence, feminine hygiene and wipes products, paper towels, and bath tissue.

Their expanded facilities will be located adjacent to its current location in Macon on Avondale Mill Road.

The company will hire executive, administrative, supervisory, and production positions.

"We're always thankful when job creators like First Quality choose to expand in Georgia, and we'll keep working to strengthen these long-term partnerships that enrich communities in every corner of the state," Kemp said. "More than 70 percent of last year's economic development projects were expansions of businesses already operating here in our state, and thanks to companies like First Quality, that positive trend will continue."
