Phoenix Jobs Moving to Mesa

One of the area's largest employers is moving several hundred Phoenix jobs.

Crescent Crown Distributing recently announced its plans to move the company's headquarters from Phoenix to a nearby suburb, creating hundreds of jobs in Mesa. The company hopes the new facility in Mesa will allow for better customer service and reduced drive time.

Crescent Crown, which distributes beer as well as non-alcoholic beverages, is planning to build a 305,000-square-foot plant on Broadway Road in Mesa, a project that is expected to cost about $30 million.

"The Broadway site is the ideal strategic location for delivery systems in the East Valley," Crescent Crown President James Moffett Jr. told The Arizona Republic. "The location offers our sales and operations personnel efficient access to three major arteries."

The company currently employs more than 600 people in the Phoenix area. Last year, 200 of those employees were moved to Surprise to be closer to the company's customers in the West Valley, and now the remaining 400 workers will be moved to Mesa

Crescent Crown Distributing serves more than 6,000 customers throughout Arizona, including restaurants, stores, bars, and other liquor-licensed venues. The company distributes several brands of domestic and imported beers, as well as non-alcoholic beverages like Welch's and Sunny Delight.

Mesa city officials are still working on a development agreement that would offer a government property lease-excise tax to Crescent Crown. However, the company claims it will still relocate to Mesa whether or not it's offered a tax break.
