Keurig Dr Pepper facility in Lehigh Valley..
Here's why I'm confused.
The article didn't specifically state they'd make k-cups. If they do why would they spend $220 million on a building they won't own when could have bought it for $36.48 million in which Kraft was already producing these k-cups with experienced workers already in place? Seems to me it would have been a lot smarter to have bought the building for themselves utilizing the storage areas, rail service, truck docks and the millions of dollars in these coffee making machines already in place. Why tear down the building?
I was told at one point Kraft requested greater water use so they could put juice lines in and were denied. So now it's OK to produce Dr. Pepper?
Why are we taxpayers going to shell out a bunch of loot along with the company training employees who worked the K-cup lines and Kraft's liquid fillers for years?
Like I said I'm confused.
I was under the impression new businesses got tax money if they needed or not
ReplyDeleteIt appears that way doesn't it
