BellAliant's new data centre in Millidgeville should mean some business for local suppliers - in an email - company spokesperson Katherine VanBuskirk tells CHSJ News local companies will be used wherever possible but that selection process hasn't been completed.
VanBuskirk will only say work will begin soon on the 25-million dollar fortress like building with construction scheduled for completion by spring of next year.
The provincial government is contributing 5-million dollars to the project which will create about 50-jobs during construction and operation of the centre.
