Rankin County, part of the Jackson metro area, is a choice location for the automotive industry and is within 30-minutes of the newly constructed $1 billion Nissan manufacturing plant in Canton, Miss. and seven tier-one Nissan suppliers. Numerous auxiliary suppliers have also located or are locating in the Jackson metro area.
The Mississippi Nissan plant, which is located on a 1,445-acre site, encompasses 2,000,000 square feet, and has the capacity to produce 250,000 vehicles a year, including a full-size pickup truck, a full-size sports utility vehicle, and the next generation Nissan minivan.
Rankin County is ideally suited to be the home to these tier suppliers due to our availablity of industrial parks and industrial property with infrastructure in place, a large skilled labor pool that does not compete for labor with the Nissan plant and their immediate suppliers nearby, a great quality of life, and our pro-business attitude.
Our location in the heart of the I-20 – I-55 corridor makes us an ideal location to not only serve the Nissan manufacturing facility, but we are less than a single day’s drive to every major auto manufacturing facility in the Southeastern and Southwestern U.S.
