      <guid>http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/viewarticle/articleid/3409576</guid>
      <description><![CDATA[&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;When discount retailer Target opened its new distribution center in the Catawba County countryside Tuesday, it did more than just unveil 1.6 million square feet of space and more than 500 jobs: It shone a light on an industry that employs about 10 percent of the regional workforce and is likely to grow in prominence once the economy recovers. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&quot;When we tell people what Charlotte is, we say it's a finance center, it's a manufacturing center and it's a distribution center,&quot; said Tony Crumbley, research director at the Charlotte Chamber. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;With companies increasingly demanding items &quot;just in time,&quot; distribution will continue to have the potential to attract big investments and create jobs across the region.That includes rural areas that have experienced manufacturing layoffs, said Kenny McDonald, executive vice president of economic development services for the Charlotte Regional Partnership, which serves a 16-county area.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;ul&gt;<a href=http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/viewarticle/articleid/3409576>[More...]</a>]]></description>
