      FACES OF MANUFACTURING RECIPIENT: SAVANNAH GLOBAL SOLUTIONS

  (Mr. CARTER of Georgia asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in recognition of 
Savannah Global Solutions Company in Pembroke, Georgia, for being 
Georgia Institute of Technology's Faces of Manufacturing award 
recipient for June of 2016.
  This prestigious award presented by Georgia Tech and the Georgia 
Manufacturing Extension Partnership program honors a company each month 
that embodies the face of manufacturing in Georgia.
  Savannah Global Solutions began as Savannah Forestry Equipment in 
1987. After diving head first into the forestry market, the company 
grew as an example of the American success story. Now, the company 
operates on an international scale and maintains multiple patents. 
Furthermore, in 2014, the Small Business Association awarded Savannah 
Global Solutions with the Exporter of the Year award.
  I am honored to have Savannah Global Solutions in the First 
Congressional District of Georgia and thank them for the work they have 
done to grow America's economy. I wish them the best of luck in the 
future.
