EASTWICK INDUSTRIAL PARK

Once part of the largest urban renewal area in the U.S. dating back to the 1950s, the 330-acre Eastwick Industrial Park helped attract investment which has created more than 4,000 jobs since PIDC acquired it from the Philadelphia Redevelopment Authority in the mid-1980s. PIDC has had a longstanding involvement with management of the City’s industrial land inventory throughout the city.

Notable companies housed in the Eastwick Industrial Park  include Tastepoint by IFF, a world leader in the development and distribution of flavors for the food industry. Herr’s Snacks, a Pennsylvania-based producer of snack foods; DHL, a worldwide package shipping company; and the U.S. Postal Service all have found Eastwick’s proximity to Philadelphia International Airport and the regional highway network critical to their growth plans.
