Gov. Tom Wolf recently announced that CorrChoice LLC, a producer of industrial corrugated paper packaging products, will expand in central Pennsylvania through a project supported by state funding.
The project is expected to create 79 jobs in Dauphin and Lebanon counties and retain a further 97 jobs.
“We’re proud that CorrChoice has selected Pennsylvania as the location for its expansion,” Wolf said. “This expansion will bring nearly 80 manufacturing jobs to the central part of the state. Projects like this demonstrate that Pennsylvania’s manufacturing sector is on the rise.”
CorrChoice will expand into a 350,000-square-foot facility in Derry Township at the border of Dauphin and Lebanon counties. The project will enable the company to its corrugated cardboard sheet feeder network and improve its response time. CorrChoice has pledged to invest more than $30 million in the project.
“This investment enables us to continue our growth with existing strategic customers while providing more responsive service on a broader range of products,” said Tim Bergwall, group president of paper packaging & services at Greif, Inc., the parent company of CorrChoice. “This latest CorrChoice expansion better positions us to provide a comprehensive supply of containerboard, sheets, and specialty products to corrugated converters in the Mid-Atlantic Region.”
The Department of Community and Economic Development provided CorrChoice with a funding proposal for a $200,000 Pennsylvania First grant, $158,000 in Job Creation Tax Credits to be distributed upon the creation of new jobs and $35,550 in job training funding through WEDnetPA for workforce development. The project was coordinated by the Governor’s Action Team, a group of economic development professionals who report directly to the governor.
