01/26/2025
Beverage packaging company REV Copack plans to expand its operations in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania. The $3.1 million project is expected to create at least 132 jobs.

The investment will include the relocation to a larger facility which will allow the company to scale up from two production lines to at least four production lines.

“We are proud to call Pennsylvania home and are grateful for the support of Governor Shapiro and his administration as we continue to grow. This expansion has helped us to double our manufacturing capacity and create new employment opportunities in Luzerne County,” said Andy Josuweit, CEO of REV Copack. “We are committed to delivering innovative packaging solutions to our customers, while investing in the community and local economy. This project is a testament to the power of public-private partnerships in driving growth and building a stronger future for Pennsylvania.”

REV Copack received a funding proposal from the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development for a $1.5 million Pennsylvania Industrial Development Authority loan and a $55,000 WEDnetPA grant to train workers.

“Manufacturing is one of the important industries we’re focusing on in Pennsylvania’s Economic Development Strategy,” noted DCED Secretary Rick Siger. “By making strategic investments in growing manufacturers like REV Copack, the Shapiro Administration is helping to strengthen the industry and spur our economy. From our prime northeast location to our exceptional, skilled workforce, Pennsylvania is the perfect fit for manufacturing companies.”

REV Copack is a beverage secondary packaging company that offers a variety of co-packing and repacking options, including cartoning, variety packs, multi-packs, tray forming, e-commerce packaging, and other custom beverage packaging solutions.

“The NEPA Alliance was delighted to support REV Copack’s expansion project, which will bring more jobs to Luzerne County and also create increased production capabilities at their new facility,” added Jeffrey Box, President and CEO, NEPA Alliance. “This project is sure to have a great, lasting impact on the region’s economy.”
