Komatsu Mining Expanding Locally

Komatsu Mining Corporation. is expanding its footprint locally. The company that has been operating in Washington County for 60 years has purchased a lot at Alta Vista Business Park to develop a 250,000 square foot distribution center. The business park is owned by the Mon Valley Alliance and Komatsu chose the site because of its proximity to Interstates 70 and 79 and the Pennsylvania Turnpike. Ben Brown, CEO of the Mon Valley Alliance stated that “The development is a result of investments made by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Washington County Commissioners through the Local Share Account program, Fallowfield Township and Charleroi School District. The site is designated with a Keystone Opportunity Zone designation. The Class A center will be built on about 30 acres and feature a 215,000-square-foot warehouse, 35,000 square feet of office space and more than 250 parking spaces.
