Packing company settles in former Coca-Cola bottling plant

1/12/2022

When Josh Pearson attended Fairmont State University, he drove by the vacant Coca-Cola bottling plant nearly every day.

“I must’ve driven by this place a thousand times, always knowing it as the Coke plant,” Pearson said. “To now be in it is surreal, it’s exciting to have a successful business and to put it right down the street from where you lived in college.”

Pearson is the owner of Mountaineer Packaging, a Charleston-based wholesale packaging distributor. Just recently, he moved his northern office out of Morgantown, down the river to the east side of Fairmont.
