Case Paper — Thriving in Philly

Initially, the Philadelphia operation—one of six Case facilities across the nation—was focused on board stocks, while the Long Island City headquarters focused on printing papers.

"Our trucks kept criss-crossing each other on the highway. We were shipping board out of Philadelphia to New York, and paper from New York to Philadelphia and New Jersey. It didn't make sense. We realized that we needed to improve our distribution network to maintain our efficiency commitment to our customers," adds Peter Schaffer, Case president and Robin's brother.
