TEGUCIGALPA, Nov 6 (Reuters) - China's textiles maker Texhong will invest $400 million in Honduras, the Honduran government said on Monday, adding that the spending will create some 7,000 jobs mostly in the town of Choloma, just north of industrial hub San Pedro Sula.

The Hong Kong-listed Texhong did not immediately respond to a request for comment. (Reporting by Gustavo Palencia; Additional reporting by Valentine Hiliare; Editing by David Alire Garcia)
