TG FLUID SYSTEMS EXPANDING, ADDING OVER 36 JOBS IN THE CITY OF
BRIGHTON
In November, TG Fluid Systems announced plans to expand in the City of Brighton, adding 36 new jobs
and investing nearly $13 million. Below is an excerpt of the press release from the Michigan Economic
Development Corporation, which offered financial assistance to support their growth in Michigan over
competing locations around the country. SPARK provided assistance to the company throughout the
application process and will provide hiring support for new jobs. The City of Brighton staff also worked
with the company in their application to the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT). You can
read the full press release on SPARK’s blog: http://blog.annarborusa.org/tg-fluid-systems-expanding-inbrighton-adding-36-new-jobs/.
TG Fluid Systems, a subsidiary of Toyoda Gosei North American Corporation, is expanding in the
City of Brighton with support from the Michigan Strategic Fund, the Michigan Economic
Development Corporation announced today. The expansion is expected to generate nearly $13
million in new private investment and add 36 new jobs.
“Michigan leads the nation in manufacturing jobs growth, and the new jobs resulting from TG
Fluid Systems’ expansion will keep us moving in the right direction,” said MEDC president and
CEO Michael A. Finney. “The company’s decision to expand in Michigan demonstrates our
state’s strong advantages as a great place to do business.”
TG Fluid Systems USA Corporation, a subsidiary of Toyoda Gosei North American Corporation, is
a plastic extrusion and forming manufacturing company. The company has experienced
significant growth due to its highly automated forming and assembly system and plans to
expand operations in the City of Brighton. The project will generate a total capital investment of
up to $12.9 million and create 36 jobs, resulting in a $150,000 Michigan Business Development
Program performance-based grant. SPARK has offered support to the project in the form of
hiring assistance, and also provided assistance to the company throughout the process of
applying for and securing incentives from the state. For employment opportunities with TG Fluid
Systems, please send an email to tgfs.resume@tggroupna.com.
The Michigan Department of Transportation is currently reviewing an application for a
Transportation Economic Development Fund grant to make local roadway repairs necessary for
the TG Fluid Systems project.
“We are happy that TG Fluid Systems USA Corporation will remain in the City of Brighton,” said
TG Fluid Systems USA President Toru Koyama. “We are looking forward to a long and successful
working relationship with the State of Michigan and the City of Brighton.”
PEPSI TO INVEST AND EXPAND IN THE CITY OF HOWELL
In October, Pepsi Bottling Group received a property tax abatement from the City of Howell to expand
its bottling facility. Pepsi is installing blow-molding equipment to convert plastic pre-forms into bottles,
or manufacture PET bottles. As part of the expansion, Pepsi will invest nearly $15 million and add five
new jobs.
The City of Howell has awarded Pepsi a 12-year property tax abatement to support the real property
improvements of the project.
“Pepsi is another global brand that sees the value of tapping in to the manufacturing talent and
infrastructure in the Ann Arbor region,” said Paul Krutko, president and CEO of Ann Arbor SPARK. “Selfmanufacturing bottles instead of purchasing bottles from a supplier is a key way that Pepsi can save
money. The ability to leverage the assets of this region is a distinct competitive advantage for Pepsi.”
With more than 380 employees, Pepsi Bottling is one of the major manufacturing operations in the City
of Howell.
Pepsi’s expansion in the City of Howell involves a total investment of more than $14.9 million in
personal and real property. The project involves a small build out of Pepsi’s plant.
Ann Arbor SPARK has been engaged with Pepsi for several months, and provided technical support on
the property tax incentives process, and also outlined the recent statewide changes to personal
property tax.
LIVINGSTON COUNTY EMPLOYERS RECEIVE THOUSANDS IN TALENT
DEVELOPMENT TRAINING GRANTS
Following up on marketing done by Ann Arbor SPARK and Livingston County Michigan Works! in the
third quarter of 2014, the Michigan Workforce Development Agency awarded training grants totaling
more than $350,000 to eight Livingston County companies through the state's Skilled Trades Training
Fund. The fund provides support for employer-led training projects in an effort to better align talent
with employer needs. The companies plan to train more than 150 current employees and hire at least
140 new workers in the next year. The grants will be administered locally by Livingston County Michigan
Works!
The companies awarded grants include:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
AA Gear and Manufacturing Inc. of Howell Township, $47,040
Asahi Kasei Plastics North America of Fowlerville, $16,800
Magna Atreum of Howell Township, $36,425
Chassix Inc. of Howell Township, $30,390
CRW Plastics USA Inc. of Genoa Township, $47,425
Diamond Chrome Plating of Howell, $35,174
TG Fluids of the City of Brighton, $25,578
Thai Summit America Corp. of the City of Howell, $112,926
"We are pleased that we can help these companies address their talent needs," said Bill Sleight, director
of Livingston County Michigan Works! "These training funds will help companies increase the skills of
their current and future employees and improve our local economy."
MICHIGAN MARKETING DOCUMENT FEATURES LIVINGSTON COUNTY
PROPERTIES FOR WORLDWIDE AUDIENCE
In October, the Michigan Economic Development Corporation issued a revised version of “The Michigan
Prospectus,” a document intended to highlight some of Michigan’s development opportunities to
investors located outside of the state. The document showcases opportunities throughout the state by
region. Page 16 of the document features two opportunities in Livingston County – the “Howell
development area,” which is owned by the City of Howell and sits in Marion Township and the City; as
well as South Latson, which is the development opportunity available through the new Latson Road
interchange. If you’d like more information about this project, or have a site you would like to showcase,
contact Phil Santer for more information.

EDCLC ANNUAL MEETING HIGHLIGHTS COUNTY GROWTH, AND THE
EFFECTS OF THE AUTOMOTIVE REBOUND IN MICHIGAN
In November, the Economic Development Council of Livingston County held its annual meeting at Cleary
University to discuss the growth of the community and recognize key projects and partners within
Livingston County. The meeting featured three awards and a keynote address by Kristin Dziczek of the
Center for Automotive Research.
The awards went to:
•
•
•
Eberspeacher North America with the 2014 “Project of the Year” for their expansion in the City
of Brighton;
The Pinckney Robotics Team for “Talent Innovation” with their focus on connecting students
with employers;
Livingston County Michigan Works! for “Partner Innovation” with their continued dedication to
employer outreach.
You can see an overview of the “Project of the Year” here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYll8FfjCLE, and review the slides from Kristin Dziczek’s
presentation here: http://www.annarborusa.org/sites/default/files/contentdocuments/auto_industry_update-november_2014.pdf.
An excerpt from the Livingston Press & Argus’s coverage of the event:
“Local and state economic issues were the focus of the Economic Development Council of
Livingston County's annual meeting, held Tuesday at Cleary University. Speakers tempered good
news with some harsh realities. The good news locally is that there has been $95 million in new
business investment over the past 30 months, bringing the promise of 520 additional jobs.
Recent arrivals — like Thomson Plastics in Genoa Township, expansion projects at existing
facilities like Eberspaecher in Brighton and reinvestment like the $15 million PepsiCo recently
committed to its Howell bottling plant — show the county's regional approach to development
is working, EDC Chairman Scott Griffith said. "It happens when we think regionally," Griffith said.
At the same time, Griffith noted a "skills gap" continues to exist between the type of workers
businesses need and those available in the county workforce.
With Griffith's earlier comments in mind, the EDC honored the Pinckney High School robotics
program, the local Michigan Works! office and Eberspacher during its 2014 awards ceremony,
also held during Tuesday's annual meeting.
The robotics program received the EDC's Talent and Partner Innovation awards, while
Eberspacher's $51 million expansion was named the county's Project of the Year. Pinckney's
robotics program provides real world job training, program director Sean Hickman said.
‘When people visit us, they are stunned,’ Hickman said. ‘It's not Tinker Toys. They're working
with real world machines.’”
Thank you to the sponsors of the event, including presenting sponsor Lake Trust Credit Union, as well as
Consumers Energy, Dollar Bill Printing, and Russell Video for their tremendous support.
EDCLC AND ANN ARBOR SPARK RENEW ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
RELATIONSHIP FOR LIVINGSTON COUNTY
In December, the EDCLC and Ann Arbor SPARK agreed to another three year economic development
relationship for Livingston County. The relationship has received statewide recognition as a best practice
for regional economic development, and Ann Arbor SPARK is excited at the prospect of building on the
region’s success over the next three years. The contract, which begins in 2015 and extends through
2017, is based on renewed relationships with the EDCLC’s municipal partners, in addition to its private
sector sponsors.
"Ann Arbor SPARK is pleased to be able to partner with Livingston County on economic development
efforts; this partnership is a terrific win for the entire region," said Paul Krutko, president and CEO, Ann
Arbor SPARK. "The competition for business location and expansion is fierce, and the combined assets of
the Ann Arbor region - talent, infrastructure, and cost of doing business - is what helps us attract and
retain leading global businesses."
The Board of Directors of the EDCLC has also expanded, with each municipal partner now represented.
LIVINGSTON EDUCATIONAL SERVICE AGENCY WORKS TO CONNECT
LOCAL EMPLOYERS WITH THE EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM
In December, the Livingston Educational Service Agency (LESA) and Ron Long of First National Bank
convened employers to discuss increasing career awareness of students throughout Livingston County.
The renewed focus on career awareness includes easy access to internships, participation in a “talent
tour” of career options in the region, or participation in an online company profile called MI Bright
Future.
Intern Livingston has been one of the regional assets discussed in SPARK’s company visits since
beginning our work in Livingston County, and we are energized by the increased outreach to the
business community from the education providers in the region. This is a great opportunity to help
proactively address the ongoing need for talent in Michigan.

QUARTERLY REPORT DEFINITIONS
COMPANY VISITS: Meetings with local businesses regarding their current business outlook. This is a core
“economic gardening” strategy that provides opportunities for referrals like workforce development
training, state-level resources, tax incentives, business development opportunities, cost reduction
strategies, access to capital, etc.
EMPLOYMENT MULTIPLIER: Figure calculated by economic modeling through Regional Economic
Models, Inc., which quantifies the indirect job effects of new job creation. For example, an employment
multiplier of 2.0 would indicate that 1 new job would affect 2 total jobs (the new job itself, and another
indirect job). Employment multipliers are based on the company’s industry and investment, among
other factors.
PROJECT PIPELINE: The project pipeline represents potential projects that have been identified, along
with their current status and probability of completion.
REFERRALS: Referrals to outside resources or value-added services provided by staff. This could include
a referral regarding a state-level program, a review to determine the feasibility of entry into a new
sector, or technical assistance with local or state-level programs.
*NOTE: Changes to the software used by the Workforce Intelligence Network have affected the types of
reports available. These changes no longer allow comparisons of current quarter demand with prior
years, as was previously presented in the quarterly reports.
