Subject:
A
couple
more
questions
for
you
Gary,
In
looking
at
the
tobacco
products
processing
industry,
we
asked
our
economists
to
develop
a
list
of
all
facilities.
Based
on
our
interactions,
I
think
Alliance
One
has
two
facilities:
Farmville,
NC
abd
Old
Stationsburg
Road
in
Wilson,
NC.
We
have
a
copy
of
the
May
2005
10K
for
Alliance
One
which
include
a
facility
list.
The
following
are
listed:
Danville,
VA;
Farmville,
VA;
and
Rocky
Mount,
NC.
Can
you
help
me
understand
why
the
two
pieces
of
information
don't
match
up?
_______________________________________________________________________
Alliance
One
is
a
merger
of
Standard
Commercial
Corp.
(
factories
at
2400
Stantonsburg
Road
Wilson,
NC
and
2201
Miller
Road
Wilson,
NC)
and
Dimon
International
(
factories
in
Danville,
VA,
Farmville,
NC
and
Rocky
Mount,
NC).
Post­
merger
the
Danville,
VA
and
2201
Miller
Road
factories
were
closed.
The
Rocky
Mount,
NC
operation
is
an
insignificant
operation
which
is
operated
rarely
and
produces
no
discharges.
This
leaves
the
Farmville
and
2400
Stantonsburg
Rd
Wilson
factories
still
in
operation.

Also,
do
you
know
anything
about
Universal?
Terry
mentioned
they
had
a
site
in
Nashville,
NC.
Their
10K
shows
Lancaster,
PA;
Danville,
VA;
and
Nash
County,
NC.

Universal
operates
factories
in
Nashville,
NC
(
Nash
County)
and
Danville,
VA.
I
don't
know
anything
about
Lancaster,
PA.
The
Nashville,
NC
facility
is
the
largest
tobacco
stemmery
in
the
US.
_______________________________________________________________________­

One
last
question,
in
Alliance
One's
10­
K,
the
Flue
Cured
Tobacco
Stabilization
Cooperative
(
FCTSC)
is
listed
as
competition.
Can
you
give
me
additional
information
in
this
Cooperative?

This
coop
has
been
in
existence
for
60
years,
but
always
hired
companies
such
as
us
to
process
their
green
leaf
tobacco.
Last
year
they
purchased
an
existing
facility
in
Timberlake,
NC
to
process
the
tobacco
themselves.
You
need
to
contact
them
for
further
information
on
their
activities,
as
I
am
not
sure.
