Serioplast, a global plastic packaging manufacturer based in Italy, will invest $25.7 million to establish a 140,000-square-foot facility in Shenandoah County, Virginia, creating 45 new jobs. The company, which supplies major brands like Procter & Gamble and Unilever, cited Virginia’s skilled workforce and strong business climate as key factors. Governor Glenn Youngkin praised the project and its partnership with the Virginia Talent Accelerator Program, which offers customized workforce training. Serioplast CEO Paolo Bergamini highlighted the company's commitment to sustainability and innovation. With 33 facilities in 16 countries, this expansion strengthens its North American presence. The Virginia Economic Development Partnership and local leaders supported the initiative, including a $180,000 state grant and workforce training services at no cost to the company.
