The beverage company has outgrown its Jenkins Township location and is relocating to a larger facility. This will allow the company to scale from two production lines to at least four.
“Pennsylvania is the best place in the country for businesses to grow and thrive — and seeing companies like REV Copack deepen their roots here in the Commonwealth sends a clear message to other businesses looking to expand or relocate here that Pennsylvania is open for business,” said Governor Shapiro.
“My Administration is committed to making strategic investments, building a skilled workforce, and positioning Pennsylvania as a leader in manufacturing. Together, we’re growing an economy that works for everyone — creating more jobs, strengthening our communities, and ensuring a brighter future for all Pennsylvanians,” he added.
REV Copack, a secondary beverage packaging company, has been in business near Pittston since 2022.
