This funding will help us recruit and train a new group of employees with the logistics skills so crucial to our business as well as the Savannah area. The Coastal Workforce Development Board/Coastal Workforce Services deserves great credit for implementing the WIOA Act here and we look forward to working with the Board for years to come.”
