"The iHerb organization looks forward to forming a solid relationship with the Northern Kentucky community," said Cliff Cowing, iHerb's director of strategic planning and analytics. "We know the Northern Kentucky workforce is strong and the geography favorable-two primary factors for choosing our location at Park West."
Kentucky is offering more than $3 million in tax incentives.
