PCA Roanoke Partners with Virginia Tech
On April 20 PCA’s sheet plant in Roanoke, Virginia, hosted 35 students from Virginia Tech’s packaging program for their annual Plant Tour and Social Day. Students toured the box plant, watched a presentation about PCA and enjoyed lunch with employees.
In addition to the Plant Tour and Social Day, PCA Roanoke is proud to partner with Virginia Tech in a number of other ways. The plant has hired a number of interns from the Packaging School, some of which have gone on to become PCA employees after graduation.
According to the Customer Service Manager at Roanoke: “We’re very excited about our partnership with Virginia Tech and their program. We’ve hired eight Tech graduates in recent years. It’s great to see all the excitement that these students have about corrugated boxes.”
