The company that makes Prime Guard automotive products and Rain-X wiper fluid has picked McDonough for a significant expansion, one that will bring 160 jobs to Henry County.
Tennessee-based Highline Warren said it will build the $170 million logistics center in a vacant complex along Ga. 42 that formerly housed a mattress manufacturing facility.
Highline Warren manufactures and distributes aftermarket products for automotive maintenance. The company runs 21 facilities across North America, providing access to more than 30,000 products and 400 brands. The company said it employs more than 1,700 people and is the top manufacturer of windshield washer fluid in the U.S.
The company’s selection of metro Atlanta for the new facility is strategic.
“The region provides access to our first port of entry on the East Coast, enhancing our ability to move products efficiently, simplify the supply chain for our customers, and support our long-term growth,” Darcy Curran, CEO of Highline Warren, said in the release.
The site is designed to support future expansion and will include technology to create strong product availability and two-day delivery to 95% of the U.S., the company said.
“Like so many other businesses, Highline Warren recognizes Georgia’s advantages when it comes to affordably producing and efficiently moving products to market,” Gov. Brian Kemp said.
Georgia Department of Economic Development spokesperson Rebecca Marshall declined to comment on incentives, stating that the project is still active at this time.
Local and state leaders welcomed the announcement. McDonough Mayor Kamali Varner said the investment will bring jobs closer to home for residents.
“The City of McDonough is pleased to welcome this $170 million investment, which will enhance our thriving economy and bring 160 new jobs closer to home for our residents,” Varner said.
Pat Wilson, commissioner of the state’s economic development department, pointed to a broader trend of automotive industry growth in the state.
“Georgia’s automotive industry continues to grow at every level of the supply chain, from manufacturing next-generation hybrid and electric vehicles to the products and services that keep them on the road,” Wilson said. “Highline Warren’s investment strengthens that ecosystem and reflects why companies continue to choose Georgia every day.”
Operations are expected to begin in late 2026, and hiring will start later this year. Interested applicants can learn more at highlinewarren.com/job-openings.
