Falk Paper moves to Port property
A regional distributor of printing paper and industrial
paper products since 1898 will celebrate its century mark in a new Port
location. Falk Paper Company was the oldest tenant in Duluth's Waterfront
Plaza. But when Falk learned its location since 1970 was being  developed
into a hotel, it needed to find a new home. "Space and location were our
primary concerns." said Gordie Carlson, Falk vice president and manager.
"We needed a large warehouse for product expansion, and we wanted convenient
freeway accessto our customers. Fortunately the Port Authority had such
a site immediately available." Falk signed a fiveyear lease for 20,250
square feet of renovated office and warehouse space on Port Authority property.
Mr. Carlson, with Falk since 1977, said the company added more staff and
became operational at the new location in April. Falk's move brings the
number of companies now operating on Port Authority properties to more
than 50, with about 715 employees.. |
