\u201cWhile the work took time to complete, we are excited that we have an updated facility that our employees, customers, and the community can be proud of,\u201d said Daniel Brooks<\/strong>, area general manager. \u201cWe have a great team here, and they take pride in being part of the Bradford community. With this investment, we are well positioned to manufacture high quality corrugated boxes to our customers throughout Pennsylvania, eastern Ohio, and western\/central New York.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Georgia-Pacific\u2019s Bradford facility also made a large community investment this year, donating $10,000 to the Bradford Township Fire Department for recently purchased fire trucks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe strive to be preferred partners in our community just like we do with our customers and employees,\u201d said Mario Williams, area operations leader. \u201cBy contributing to the local fire department, we\u2019re helping them acquire the resources they need to do their work safely, effectively, and to the best of their abilities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Bradford plant has been operated by Georgia-Pacific since 1990 and directly employs approximately 125 people.
