Asheboro featured on 60 Minutes piece

The television program 60 Minutes had an 11-minute piece on the town of Asheboro on Sunday night.

The town was held up as an example of the uneven economic recovery that has been plaguing the country.

Among the businesses featured in the piece by anchor Scott Pelley was Miss Jenny's Pickles of Kernersville. Pelley interviewed Jenny Fulton, the company's founder.

Also mentioned in the piece were MOM Brands (formerly the Malt-O-Meal Company), which has been adding workers in Asheboro, and Hyosung USA, which recently announced that it will close its Asheboro wire plant and eliminate 310 jobs.
