A flexible packaging manufacturer that owns the former Cello-Pack operations in Cheektowaga is relocating a large warehouse operation to a former retail plaza-turned-business park that is close to its main facility.
ProAmpac, based in Cincinnati, has signed a 10-year lease with Benderson Development Co.for a 90,611-square-foot warehouse in the Garden Village Commerce Park off Union Road at French Road. That’s the former Garden Village Plaza, which Benderson redeveloped five years ago.
The company, whose local operation is at 55 Innsbruck Drive, previously leased a warehouse elsewhere in town, said David Schiller of Pyramid Brokerage Co., who handled the lease for ProAmpac.
ProAmpac – which is owned by Pritzker Group Private Capital along with management and other investors – has 34 manufacturing facilities, nine design centers and 4,000 employees in seven countries. The company makes packaging for the food service and retail, flexible, and lawn and garden industries. The Buffalo operation is part of the lawn, garden and specialty business.
The company came to Buffalo in April 2017 when it acquired Trinity Packaging Corp. of Armonk, which had operations in Buffalo and Rocky Mount, Va. Trinity, in December 2012, had acquired Cello-Pack Corp. of Buffalo, which was founded in 1948 and had been owned by the Gioia family.
