Red Bull, as well as its partner, Rauch, are adding a new facility together in Right to Work Concord, North Carolina! In fact, they plan to invest $740 million toward the state to make this possible.

“What an outstanding announcement for our county and our region,” said Sen. Paul Newton, a Republican who represents the district. “The decision by these innovative companies to choose Cabarrus County creates game-changing employment opportunities for our citizens.”
