New Call Center in Somerset to Bring 150 Jobs

A new customer service call center is planned for Somerset, creating 150 jobs. 

EOS USA plans to invest nearly $4 million into the project.

Governor Steve Beshear and U.S. Rep. Hal Rogers announced the project last week and said the center is expected to be open by the end of the year.

EOS USA is a subsidiary of German-based EOS Group, which operates 50 companies in 26 countries and has more than 8,500 employees. Beshear's office said EOS USA employs more than 1,000 in North America.

The state has approved the company for tax incentives of up to $2 million.
