Logoplaste has relocated its North American headquarters to the Plainfield village, creating 40 jobs making containers for Diageo alcoholic beverages. Diageo's Plainfield plant produces, among other things, Smirnoff vodka and José Cuervo tequila.

The new plant employs about 40 people, and another 50 jobs will be added when the company moves its research and development center to Plainfield in the next few years.

"It's momentous to have Logoplaste present a new manufacturing face in Plainfield in these economic times," said Tim Stetenfeld, chairman of the Plainfield Economic Development Task Force. "To have them put their North American headquarters here is just over the top."

As a sign of appreciation the City Mayor decided to name the street of the facility for the day of the launch as "Logoplaste Drive".

Logoplaste CEO Filipe de Botton went to the Plainfield facility launch. "When we think of America, we think of cowboys and cigarettes, the Marlboro Man," de Botton said. "We think the sky is the limit." 

And the new North American headquarters in Plainfield? 

"This is the strawberry on top of the cake," de Botton said.
