Graham Packaging buys KCK facility

Graham Packaging, which bought the Tetra Pak business in Joplin earlier this year, continued its growth with the purchase of Consolidated Container Company's Kansas City, Kan., plant, according to today's Kansas City Business Journal.
Company officials told the Journal that all 68 employees have been transferred to Graham Packaging and that existing production levels will be maintained and may be expanded. It was good news for employees since the plant originally had been scheduled to close at the end of last month.
Graham Packaging officials told the Journal they will use the facility to supply containers for Procter & Gamble.
