ICF Mercantile opens Bethlehem manufacturing facility

ICF Mercantile LLC has leased 2500 Emrick Boulevard in Bethlehem. The transaction was facilitated by Chad Hillyer and Tucker McBride with CBRE. 

According to developer, J.G. Petrucci, ICF Mercantile is a family-owned technical textiles leader that specializes in the manufacturing of fiber, yarn, and fabrics.  

It currently operates two ISO-certified facilities in Warren, New Jersey and Berkeley Heights, New Jersey. The new lease in the Lehigh Valley marks their expansion into Pennsylvania, while maintaining close proximity to their existing locations. 

“We’re thrilled to welcome ICF Mercantile to LVIP VI where they join a strong and diverse group of small manufacturers,” says Kerry Wrobel, president of Lehigh Valley Industrial Park Inc. “We congratulate the J.G. Petrucci Company on their sustained record of success attracting quality manufacturers to the Lehigh Valley and specifically to LVIP’s business centers.” 

The tenant will occupy a 70,000-square-foot suite in the 120,000-square-foot industrial facility within Lehigh Valley Industrial Park VI, joining HAWE Manufacturing US Inc., which occupies 50,000 square feet.  

 ICF Mercantile will use the space to further expand its manufacturing capabilities.
