RockTenn Merchandising Displays is in a growing mode

The recent purchase of a 28,000-sqft building gives the division a five-building complex at its headquarters. RockTenn Merchandising Displays bought the building from CML Microcircuits for $1.1 million. They will have over 1 million square feet between all of their locations in Winston-Salem.

Fifty to 60 people are moving into the renovated space. It will house the division's accounting, information technology and logistics-management groups. A die shop and a printing plate shop also will be installed in the building.

RockTenn Merchandising Displays' sales have doubled the past two years in the display business. This growth has led to job creation. Last year, RockTenn Merchandising Displays hired 90 new full-time employees. Now, the company wants to fill 30 hourly jobs in manufacturing and distribution, and 13 salaried positions in accounting, project management, engineering and designing.
