On Wednesday, April 10, 2024, the Council for Quality Growth hosted the 2024 State of Henry County Address in partnership with Henry County and the Henry Chamber of Commerce at Grace Baptist Church ATL in Stockbridge. A crowd of more than 300 Council and Chamber members, elected officials, businesses, residents, county staff, and partners of Henry County attended the annual address to hear from Henry County Chairwoman Carlotta Harrell. This year’s breakfast was presented by Geosam Capital Group and Truist.
Chairwoman Carlotta Harrell began her 4th State of the County address full of optimism for the growth and future that lies ahead for Henry County. Henry County has seen exponential growth, from 50,000 residents to 250,000 since 1970. Chairwoman Harrell reported 1,600 new jobs and over $1 billion in commercial investment just last year. Ranked the 7th best county across the U.S. for business growth, Henry County has no intention of slowing down. Coming in the next couple of years are major investments like Hyundai’s meta plant for electric vehicles, Renewal by Andersen’s advanced manufacturing facility, and NewCold’s large-scale distribution center, which is Henry County’s single largest investment at $333 million, expected to create 200 jobs.
