Waynesboro City Council to Honor Klann Plastics with Official Appreciation Visit

Official Appreciation Visit

The Waynesboro City Council is set to make a special visit to Klann Plastics on June 22, 2026, in a meaningful show of gratitude for the company's lasting contributions to the local community. The visit, organized as part of the city's annual Council Acknowledgment Tour, will include the presentation of an official appreciation certificate recognizing Klann Plastics for the business it has brought to Waynesboro, the jobs it has created for residents, and the broader economic impact it has had on the city. It is a moment that speaks to the strong relationship between Waynesboro's local government and the businesses that help power its economy.

The City's Economic Landscape

The honor was bestowed upon Klann Plastics by Gregory E. Hitchin, Director of Economic Development and Tourism for the City of Waynesboro. Each year, City Council selects a company that has demonstrated exceptional commitment to the community and made a tangible difference in the city's economic landscape. This year, Klann Plastics stood out as a clear choice — a business that has not only maintained a strong local presence but has also contributed meaningfully to Waynesboro's growth and vitality. The Council Acknowledgment Tour is one of the city's most personal ways of saying thank you directly to the businesses that make Waynesboro a great place to live and work.

Homegrown Economic Engine

As the June 22nd visit approaches, it serves as a reminder of how much local businesses matter to the fabric of a community. Klann Plastics represents the kind of homegrown economic engine that cities like Waynesboro depend on — providing stable employment, supporting the local tax base, and helping to attract further investment to the region. The City Council's decision to show up in person, certificate in hand, reflects a genuine appreciation that goes beyond formality. It is a celebration of partnership between the public and private sectors, and a signal that Waynesboro is committed to recognizing and nurturing the businesses that invest in its future.
