FITCHBURG, Mass., Nov. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Global Equipment International, LLC ("GEI") and Snow West Group Realty, LLC have announced the acquisition of the former Greif Containerboard Paper Mill, a 650,000-square-foot industrial complex on 200 acres including Snows Mill Pond in Fitchburg, Massachusetts.

The site, which has long been part of the region's manufacturing heritage, will soon enter a new chapter. GEI plans to conduct a three-day auction of the mill's equipment and assets on December 9th, 10th, and 11th, 2025, and is also exploring future redevelopment and leasing opportunities for the expansive property.

"Our team is proud to invest in Fitchburg and to help guide the next phase of this property's life," said Jordan Feldman, Vice President at Global Equipment International. "There's tremendous potential here— Its strategic location, access to rail infrastructure, and proximity to major highways make it well-positioned for modern industrial or mixed-use redevelopment. We're committed to working with the city and local stakeholders to find the right long-term vision for the site."

Global Equipment International and Snow West Group Realty, LLC envision a variety of possibilities for the property following the auction, including industrial reuse, warehousing and logistics operations, light manufacturing, or mixed commercial development. GEI's goal is to create new opportunities that align with Fitchburg's ongoing revitalization efforts and the broader growth occurring across North Central Massachusetts.

The company is actively engaging with economic development organizations, municipal leaders, and private investors to evaluate long-term strategies that can attract new businesses, generate jobs, and preserve the site's industrial legacy while embracing new forms of sustainable growth.
