They sold our division off before koch bought them . I worked for the distribution division .
We got a new plant coming into L'ville now. They are moving into the old GP facility. I hear they into backer boarding for concrete and such. You right about GP putting the crunch on L'ville. Lost a plywood, particle board, and a chemical plant. Hundreds of jobs
