The One North Carolina Fund is providing a $90,000 performance-based grant to assist LLFlex. The company had to create a certain number of jobs and meet capital investment goals to qualify for the grant. A matching grant from the local government is also a requirement to receive the money.
LLFlex has been in business for 90 years and is headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky. It provides materials and services to the tobacco, wire and cable, and construction industries.
