The obvious followup question is how common it is for a company to bring in hundreds of workers to set up a factory.

I'm aware that there are people with specialized knowledge who travel internationally for that kind of work. What I'm unclear about is the scale.

According to their agreements with Georgia's state govt, factories like this are set to employ 8000+ locals once they're up and running. Given that scale, requiring 1/20 as many specialists working on site to set everything up doesn't seem too farfetched.

Far fetched? Its somewhat like a farmer complaining about rain and sun.
