The expanded location strengthens FORTA’s Delivery System network and supports the
growing demand for fiber-reinforced asphalt solutions across the globe.
We’re thrilled to announce the grand opening of FORTA Delivery Systems’ newly expanded
facility in Franklin, Pennsylvania! This exciting move marks a significant milestone in our journey
and reflects our unwavering commitment to innovation, community, and sustainable growth.
The transition from our previous operations in Sarasota, Florida to Franklin isn’t just a change in
geography—it’s a strategic investment in the future. This new facility strengthens our delivery
network, boosts our operational capabilities, and enables us to better serve our customers
across a wider region.
“Our expansion into Franklin represents more than a new building—it’s a bold step toward long-
term success,” said Peter Ferris, CEO of FORTA. “We’re investing in people, partnerships, and
potential. This community is now part of our story, and we couldn’t be more excited about the
opportunities ahead.”
With the opening of our Franklin location, we’re not only enhancing logistics but also creating
valuable employment opportunities. New jobs mean new beginnings for families, more local
economic activity, and stronger community connections. This move helps build a resilient,
vibrant future—together.
Behind this successful launch is the incredible dedication of our team. The transition from
Sarasota was no small feat, but thanks to the commitment and hard work of everyone involved,
we’ve hit the ground running. Their efforts have laid the groundwork for a seamless start and an
even smoother road ahead.
As we expand our footprint in Franklin, our focus remains the same: delivering excellence,
fostering innovation, and growing with purpose. We’re excited to deepen our roots here and
continue building on the partnerships and progress that make FORTA the leader in fiber
reinforcement solutions.
