Brookston-based Jessup Paper Box has received tax abatement on a $2 million plan to relocate to Lafayette. The Journal and Courier reports the company plans to move operations and two dozen employees to a new Tippecanoe County facility. Jessup could break ground on the project in February.

The company makes packaging, game boards and puzzles and has been in business since the 1950s.

Owner Butch Huber says the move will make Jessup “more efficient and more competitive.”
