"DuPont has been in Victoria for over 50 years. We believe the Victoria community has been an asset to our businesses. When we site plants, we take into consideration all the expected concerns about business climate and infrastructure. We also look carefully at the spirit of the local community. Are the people proud of their community? Do they have a solid work ethic? Are they progressive and flexible; able to change with the times and adjust to new challenges and seize new opportunities? To DuPont - Victoria has been all of this.”

Charles O. Holliday, Jr.

DuPont chairman and chief executive officer.
