East Penn Manufacturing is expanding its footprint in Berks County 

On Friday, the Wolfson Group held a ribbon-cutting ceremony celebrating the completion of a 930,000-square-foot logistics distribution center for East Penn in Blandon. 

 The new facility was described as a significant investment in industrial infrastructure at a time when supply chain resilience and domestic manufacturing remain top national priorities.  

The newly completed, state-of-the-art distribution center is expected to strengthen operational capacity while contributing to continued economic growth in the region. 

 “This facility represents an important step forward for East Penn, said Christy Weeber, president of East Penn. “It allows us to bring many synergies together and create more consistency in how we serve our customers. It is also an investment in our people. We’re excited to provide a modern workspace that brings teams together and creates new efficiencies and opportunities. As we celebrate this opening, it’s especially meaningful as East Penn marks its 80th anniversary this year.” 

As part of the celebration, the Wolfson Group also announced charitable contributions to several local organizations, including Trinity Bible Fellowship Food Pantry, Maidencreek Township Park and Recreation, Fleetwood Area Library, and Blandon Fire Company Relief. These contributions reflect the company’s ongoing commitment to supporting the communities where it develops and operates.
