Developer eyes Rumford for $150M plant
Rumford may eventually be home to a new $150 million “processing plant” from a company with a “track record” of making large investments in Maine, but details are sparse so far.
The Sun Journal reported that the unidentified company is reaching final negotiations with the town for the proposed plant, citing an interview with a developer the newspaper didn’t identify. State and regional economic development officials also are involved. The plant would be located in the business park behind the Rumford Power Plant.
The developer told the newspaper that the plant would create about 20 long-term jobs and 150 construction jobs, and that the company has “a track record of good historical investment in the state of Maine on a large scale.”
