Gov. Wolf Celebrates 194,000 Jobs Available for Pennsylvanians through Governor's Action Team Success during CANPACK Manufacturing Facility Tour

During a tour at CANPACK, Governor Tom Wolf celebrated the 194,000 jobs created and retained through his Governor's Action Team (GAT) since 2015. His 430 completed projects garnered a total of $17.8 billion in private investments to support communities across the commonwealth.

"It's quite an honor to see the manufacturing powerhouse that CANPACK has brought to the Greater Scranton Area," said Gov. Wolf. "Five hundred jobs for this community is a really big deal, and it's just one example out of 430 projects that we've made possible across Pennsylvania over the past eight years."

The CANPACK facility in Olyphant is the product of a 2020 GAT deal. CANPACK gave life to a formerly blighted 102-acre brownfield site and developed a 908,000 square-foot aluminum can manufacturing facility that created more than 500 jobs for the local community.

Speakers Include:
Peter Giorgi -President, CEO of Giorgi Global Holdings (GGH)
Gov. Tom Wolf
Rep. Kyle Mullins
