About Scott County (MS)
Scott County, located in central Mississippi along the Interstate 20 corridor between Jackson and Meridian, has developed a manufacturing community that is disproportionately strong for its rural size, anchored by food processing, building materials, and automotive-related production. The county seat of Forest serves as the primary industrial center, where large-scale poultry processing and value-added food manufacturing dominate employment and supply-chain activity. Facilities operated by Koch Foods and Tyson Foods make Scott County one of Mississippi’s notable poultry-processing hubs, supporting a broad network of contract growers, feed suppliers, packaging vendors, refrigeration services, and logistics firms across the region.
Beyond food processing, Scott County has cultivated a significant industrial base in engineered wood, metal fabrication, and automotive components. The presence of major employers such as Forest Products (a leading wood-products manufacturer) and Milwaukee Tool’s large power-tool and accessory manufacturing campus has shifted the county toward more advanced manufacturing, precision machining, and automated assembly. Milwaukee Tool’s continued expansion in Forest has been particularly transformative, bringing high-skill production roles, supplier attraction, and workforce development investment that elevates the county’s manufacturing profile well beyond traditional rural industry.
