The Yamaha manufacturing facility in Newnan, Ga., is featured in a new episode of “Small Town, Big Deal,” one of the most popular and widely viewed shows airing on the RFD-TV network. Small Town, Big Deal is a weekly program that shines the spotlight on the innovative, interesting and historic things happening in small towns across America.
The show is co-hosted by Rodney Miller, a long-time leader in the agricultural machinery industry, and Jann Carl, former correspondent and anchor for ”Entertainment Tonight.” The episode featuring Newnan and Yamaha will first air on Thursday, June 11, at 8:30 p.m. Central Standard Time.
“We showcase real Americans and real communities doing remarkable things,” said Miller. “Newnan is a very historic and charming community, which makes it a great fit for Small Town, Big Deal. Yamaha is a big part of the community fabric and has had a tremendously positive impact on Newnan, not only from an economic standpoint, but also from a philanthropic standpoint. It was a thrill for us to visit Yamaha’s state-of-the-art manufacturing facility, talk to the employees and learn about some of the community-based programs Yamaha has brought to Newnan.”
