Zep Inc., a specialty chemicals company based in Atlanta, will dedicate its new 100,000 square foot facility in Upper Macungie Township this week, reports the Express-Times.
Joe O’Brien, president of Zep East, said the company already employs 60 and plans to expand with the introduction of local manufacturing. The jobs commitment helped secure $300,000 in state-funded tax credits.
The credits are part of more than $2.7 million in state support for the $9.2 million project, said Luke Webber, a spokesman for the state Department of Community and Economic Development.
