Symmco to bring 86 jobs to Hawkins County

SURGOINSVILLE - The Pennsylvania Dutch say that rain at the sign of starting of a building is a sign of good luck.

If Tuesday’s downpour is any indication, Symmco should be in good shape in Hawkins County’s Phipps Bend Industrial District.

Symmco, based in Sykesville, Pennsylvania, chose Surgoinsville as its first plant to be located outside of the Northeast as the company announced its plans at noon at Phipps Bend.
