Jim Justice. “Procter & Gamble has made a huge commitment to our state and we are excited that they have decided to add an additional 200 good-paying, full time jobs to the 700 they already announced. We hope they will continue to look at West Virginia for additional expansion opportunities in the future and we are prepared to assist them in any way we can.”
