decided to invest in our Decatur distribution center to expand our assembly capacities. Decatur has a bigger population than Sullivan, so we were focused on recruiting a larger workforce from a broader pool. However, all components that go into the assembly of our products are still manufactured in our Sullivan site, which serves as a support system for our facility in Decatur. In the early 1990s, as a manufacturer in a town of 4,600 people, we aimed to offer quality, good-paying jobs to local families. The family unit is important to our employees, who are themselves part of our Agri-Fab family, and to us. This commitment led us to establish our Proto-Tykes daycare, providing affordable, reduced-cost daycare for our employees. This year, we broke ground on a new daycare center. Our current Proto-Tykes daycare is just under 5000 square feet, while the new center will be over 9000 square feet, enabling us to accommodate more of our employees’ children.
