American Hose Company Plans To Open In July BY TERRY POPE A manufacturing planl that plans to open in the Lcland Industrial Park July 1 will eventually hire around 50 people. American Hose Corp. has an in ternational partnership of two Can adians, two Italians and two Aus trians. It plans to take over the for mer Striplap Manufacturing Co. building, which shut down last year. Thomas Monks, executive direc tor of the Brunswick County Re sources Development Commission, said Monday the company has pur chased Striplap's equipment and will lease the building and land. The plan has been in the works since September. "It seems to be well-capitalized," said Monks, "and they have experi enced management. They have taken a more businesslike approach, which should lead to a successful opera tion." Striplap declared bankruptcy last year and folded on a S250,000 in dustrial development loan obtained with the help of Brunswick County RDC. However, rural counties, like Brunswick, are not responsible for repaying such federal and state loans. American Hose will employ 25 people in July and add another 15 for a second shift of workers within nine months. Another 15 people will be hired within two years, when the company plans to operate a third shift The company will manufacture and sell built rubber hoses of all sizes for transferring water, fuels, chemicals and air. "We expect to be in production on or about July 1," said David Tom linson, one of the partners. "Just in time for Independence Day." The partnership also owns several companies, but it is their first in Nortii Carolina. 'The opportunity was here," said Tomlinson. "This is where the assets were located. It's a very costly un dertaking to move. But it seems like a nice place to locate anyway." Monks said his office assisted American Hose through the local N.C. Employment Security Com mission office and with resources through Brunswick Community Col lege. "I wish 10 or 20 more would choose to loeate here," said Monks. "It just seems like we continue to be swamped with activity. So it's still there." Monks said Brunswick County is still in the running for two compa nies that would employ about 250 people each.
