Pitt Ohio operates from a facility at 3365 Broadway, east of Union Road in Cheektowaga.
“It’s a smaller facility, and we’ve outgrown it,” said Geoff Muessig, executive vice president.
Pitt Ohio plans to update the former New Penn Motor Express facility it acquired on Transit Road and move in there after the company’s communications equipment is installed, possibly in the third quarter, Muessig said.
The company has more than 40 employees at its current location and expects to grow its local workforce, he said.
“We are adding jobs because we are fast growing,” he said. Companywide, Pitt Ohio has 3,500 employees.
Muessing declined to comment on the company’s plans for its facility on Broadway.
