John Kersey, executive vice president of Zilber Ltd., noted the new facilities will improve the operations and support long-term growth goals for each company.
"Additionally, we are excited about the potential shown to attract users to the Salem Business Park and look forward to working with KABA, the village of Salem Lakes staff and elected officials to continue building on these successful projects," he said in the release.
