WestRock announced Tuesday it plans to build a “state-of-the-art” corrugated box plant in Pleasant Prairie, Wisconsin. When construction is complete, the company will close an existing plant in North Chicago, Illinois, about 20 miles away.
Construction on the more than 550,000-square-foot Wisconsin plant is expected to start this year — likely during the second quarter — and be complete in 2025, said Robby Johnson, senior manager of corporate communications at WestRock, via email. The company has not yet disclosed the estimated production capacity at the new facility.
