Brian P. Kemp, Governor of Georgia, said that they are excited that Grupo Bimbo has selected Georgia for the investment, and they are looking forward to others in the upcoming years. Brian P. Kemp added that, in 2021, they celebrated more than 60 percent of jobs created outside of Atlanta, and they are staying focused on bringing opportunities to all the people of Georgia.
