BUSINESS MEMO: MORE P&G CONSTRUCTION

Construction is under way at Union Centre, Ohio, on a new 300,000-square-foot facility that will house the offices and laboratories of the Procter & Gamble Global Supply, Engineering Research & Development Organization, which has the responsibility for development of new manufacturing systems for many of P&G's existing and new products.

The new facility will be west of the company's first facility at Union Centre, a 125,000-square-foot building that houses corporate packaging design. The two facilities will house about 300 employees.
