“This new packaging plant will enable our team in the region to serve customers even better in the future, with a manufacturing facility that will provide new capabilities and efficiencies,” said David B. Sewell, chief executive offi- cer of WestRock. “We are pleased to invest in a local com- munity that is vibrant and growing.” “The Cowlitz Economic Development Council is proud to have been a part of assisting WestRock with this inno- vative expansion,” said Ted Sprague, president, Cowlick County Economic Development Council. “The increase in jobs and new capital investment will serve our community and region well into the future.” An investment fund managed by ElmTree Funds, a real estate private equity firm headquartered in St. Louis, Mis- souri, is the owner of the project. ElmTree Funds engaged JB2 Partners to act as developer and Clayco to act as gen- eral contractor to consolidate and expand the mill opera- tions in Longview. “We are thrilled to continue building on our partnership with WestRock through this high-visibility project,” said Bri- an Boehm, a Managing Director for ElmTree Funds. “The ElmTree team, along with our developer, JB2, and our gen- eral contractor, Clayco, took a thoughtful, solutions-driven approach to deliver at cost and in scope. We're eager to see this project come to fruition.” Visit www.westrock.com for more information.
