Strawberries aren't the only things setting down roots in Plant City. Big companies are coming to the area, including a new City Furniture showroom along I-4 that will have its grand opening Friday.
Two massive new warehouses along I-4 in Plant City could have far-reaching effects on the area's economy. City Furniture's expansive showroom, cafe, corporate offices and warehouse space will bring hundreds of new jobs, while Fortune 100 companies are reportedly eyeing the other location as a possible distribution facility.
