Longview Economic Development Corp (LEDCO)

During a recent site visit to Genpak, we asked what has helped them continue to succeed and invest in Longview. Alberto Vazquez, General Manager of Genpak Longview, shared this:

“The people and the culture. I’m fortunate enough that I get to travel and see the culture in other states and our culture here is different. Our people are hardworking, dedicated, enthusiastic and selfless. Genpak Longview’s culture has these qualities that make us stand out from the rest.”

Fun fact: Genpak in Longview manufactures to-go containers used by Wingstop restaurants so the next time you get wings to-go, check the bottom of your container for their logo!
