Elected leadership and project stakeholders will gather to celebrate this collaborative project between the City of Brevard, Transylvania County, Golden LEAF Foundation and North Carolina Department of Commerce.

Approximately 30,000 square feet of the facility will be immediately occupied and leased by SylvanSport, a leading innovator and manufacturer of outdoor gear headquartered in Brevard, NC. The celebration also coincides with the completion  of a vacant 30,375 square foot shell space which will become available for lease to other expanding or new manufacturing companies interested in opening an operation in the community.
