Columbus, Ohio – Nuvo Packaging, a plastic thermoforming company specializing in manufacturing recyclable food packaging for the bakery, deli, confectionary, and food service industries, announced today its plans to establish its first operation in Ohio. This new facility will serve customers in the eastern half of the United States.
The decision to locate the new operation in Columbus marks a significant milestone for Nuvo Packaging and represents a strategic expansion to better serve their growing customer base.
“We are thrilled to announce the establishment of our first operation in Ohio,” said Ira Maroofian, CEO of Pinnpack and Nuvo Packaging. “Columbus offers a strategic location and a skilled workforce, making it an ideal choice for our expansion efforts. We are confident that our investment in this new facility will not only enable us to better serve our clients, but also contribute to the economic growth of the region.”
