Androscoggin Mill in Jay has a new owner

SUN JOURNAL • December 14, 2023

JGT2 Redevelopment, based in Kansas, announced Thursday that it has purchased the defunct Androscoggin paper mill buildings and 1,000 acres on Riley Road. Pixelle stopped production of paper in March and shut down the mill permanently. The plan is to demolish the south end of the mill and redevelop the north side. JGT2 proposes to restart the cogeneration plant to produce power to sell to the grid while redeveloping the properties associated with the former mill into a mix of industrial, manufacturing and distribution components.
