The winners of this year’s awards represent some of the leading manufacturers and suppliers in the automotive sector, and I look forward to working with them to continue creating opportunity and maintain Georgia’s title as the number one place in the nation to do business.” 

Decostar Industries, Inc., a division of Magna Exteriors, received the highly distinguished Community Impact Award for strongly demonstrating a high level of corporate citizenship in and around the community of Carrollton and state of Georgia. General manager Fadi Chabbouh tells us, “We started in late 2018 putting a plan into place for 2019 with the goal of being involved with several activities on a monthly basis in the community.”
