"United Bank Card Inc. has selected the Lehigh Valley as a consolidation location for two out-of-state operations and the corporate headquarters team.
United Bank Card will lease the former regional headquarters of Kraft Foods Inc. in Hanover Township, creating 175 jobs with the relocation from Hampton, N.J. The 27,750-square-foot building will house all office and warehouse operations.
The Lehigh Valley Economic Development Corp. assisted in securing $778,750 for the project from the Department of Community and Economic Development. The funding consists of a $350,000 opportunity grant, $78,750 in job training assistance and $350,000 in job creation tax credits. The Governor's Action Team coordinated the project."
