A ribbon-cutting ceremony was held in Hattiesburg on Tuesday to highlight the new Jones Capital headquarters.
Jones, a private investment firm, announced plans to construct its headquarters in Midtown Hattiesburg back in 2021. The $50 million, 80,000-square-foot facility has now come to fruition in the Hub City and is anticipated to welcome around 200 new employees.
“Proud to help cut the ribbon on Jones’ new headquarters in Hattiesburg,” Gov. Tate Reeves wrote on X. “This $50 million private sector investment will create 200 high-paying jobs for Mississippians. The momentum continues!”
