Analysts, Inc. Expands in Gwinnett


Growing company creates 20 new jobs in Metro Atlanta

(GWINNETT- METRO ATLANTA) November 18, 2011- Analysts, inc., in partnership with Gwinnett Chamber Economic Development and  the City of Suwanee, celebrates its expansion in Gwinnett.t The company, currently employing 22 highly-trained employees, will add 15-20 jobs. The company is currently preparing to expand to a new 12,000-square-foot facility that it purchased at 3385 Martin Farm Road in the City of Suwanee.

“Analysts chose to stay in Gwinnett County for three primary reasons:  It offers a very favorable business climate which, in spite of current economic woes,  is very hard to find these days.  The City of Suwanee runs its operations like a business not as a traditional  bureaucratic entity.  This was very refreshing and appealing to us as we searched for a larger facility.   Being approximately seven miles from our original laboratory in Norcross we are able to make the move while maintaining employment for our current workers.   As we expand and add to our ranks the area offers a pool of qualified candidates from the local community.  Doing business in Gwinnett County since 1984 we feel like family, and you don’t leave your family.” commented Michael Forgeron is the President of Analysts, Inc.

The company’s announcement comes at a time when many companies in Gwinnett County are announcing their choice to expand their operations within the community. This is the fourth existing-industry expansion announcement in the past three weeks for the county.
