  SUGAR LAND, TX, Mar 24 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas) -- Tennessee
is attracting more and more industrial companies to the state. Last
year's announcements by Volkswagen and Dow Corning to construct
multibillion-dollar manufacturing plants in the state, which was followed
by this year's announcement that Wacker Chemie will build a $1 billion
plant, has everybody's attention. Just landing one of these mega-projects
would be big news in any state, but landing three is amazing. These three
projects alone will create 3,300 direct jobs and about twice as many
construction jobs, as well as indirect employment jobs for suppliers.
