Gov. Haley Barbour will be in Tupelo on Tuesday morning, September 25, for another "major automotive industry announcement." The announcement is set for 10:30 a.m. at BancorpSouth Conference Center. Speculation is the announcement will be that a supplier to the new Toyota factory will be setting up its digs in the Harry Martin Industrial Park in north Lee County, near the current location of Hancock Fabrics headquarters. If this is where the next supplier lands, the north Lee County/South Prentiss County area will receive a major economic shot in the arm, especially the city of Baldwyn and the town of Guntown.
