Snack Food Firm Expands Holdings

MOOSIC, PA – A frozen snack foods manufacturer has acquired an adjacent building for $1.2 million for additional storage.

J&J Snack Foods Corp./MIA Products bought the 42,000-square-foot structure at 625 Rocky Glen Road for warehousing, MIA vice president and general manager T.J. Couzens said. MIA employs about 200 people.

The company will relocate storage operations from a leased site in Scranton to the Moosic building by April 1, Mr. Couzens said.

John Cognetti, president of Hinerfeld Commercial Realty, which represented seller Carl Touhey, of Albany, N.Y., said the structure was built in the early ’80s for Federal Express.

Its most recent tenants were DHL Express and Jack Williams Tire & Auto Service Centers.
