Phase 2 of construction continues on schedule for GTA’s primary manufacturing facility
(January 8, 2014) Tunica, Miss. -- GreenTech Automotive (GTA), a U.S. automotive
manufacturer dedicated to developing and producing environmentally friendly, energyefficient vehicles, announced today that workers have begun erecting steel support
structures for its new production facility in Tunica, Miss.
“GTA’s permanent manufacturing home in Tunica has been taking shape on the ground
level for several months now, and we’re looking forward to seeing the structure itself
rise up in the coming weeks,” said Charles Wang, chairman and CEO of GTA. “As GTA
continues to make significant progress toward our engineering, production and hiring
goals, we’re eager to move into the new facility when construction is complete this
spring.”
Structural steel work began January 6 and will continue through mid-February. Exterior
walls will go up beginning in early February. Forcum Lannom Contractors LLC is
overseeing the construction. GTA expects the entire exterior structure, including walls
and roof, will be completed by the middle of March, allowing for the company to begin
moving its production capability into the new facility.
GTA currently operates a pilot manufacturing facility in Horn Lake, Mississippi, where it
builds MyCar, a two-seat Neighborhood Electric Vehicle (NEV), and GTA’s new four
door, All-Electric Sedan. Both vehicles produce zero emissions, provide segment
leading range per charge and can be recharged via a common 110V wall outlet, a 220V
wall outlet or fast charging stations.
