AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Food Safety Fallout: Federal CDC and FDA officials say shredded iceberg lettuce from Mexico served at Taco Bell locations in Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio and West Virginia is the likely source of the multistate cyclospora outbreak, with 1,644+ confirmed cases and 94 hospitalizations reported so far; Taco Bell and supplier Taylor Farms have moved to pull the implicated lettuce from supply chains while regulators check whether more contaminated product remains. Local Consumer Impact: West Virginia diners are specifically included in the federal warning, and the outbreak is already shifting buying behavior as some shoppers and retailers pivot toward whole heads of lettuce or local produce. West Virginia Business Climate: A new analysis argues West Virginia’s business climate has worsened under GOP control, citing drops in economy and workforce rankings and rising cost pressures. Greenbrier Court Fight: The Greenbrier’s receivership deadline passed without a deal, as Jim Justice’s side accuses Omni’s affiliate of misrepresenting settlement talks. Workforce & Industry: Toyota’s Buffalo, W.Va. plant marked its 30th anniversary and hosted Ohio University leaders, underscoring regional recruiting ties. Regional Development: Weirton’s Business Development Corp is nearing a move into the renovated People’s Bank building, aiming to keep downtown momentum going. Agriculture Threat: WVU Extension warns spotted lanternflies are now in 21 counties, calling it a serious economic risk to crops and trees.
