MENTOR, Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Greenbridge, a leading provider of sustainability solutions to packaging and consumer products companies across North America, is pleased to expand the organizational footprint to include Cleveland, Ohio as Greenbridge has executed upon a lease of the property located at 7000 Denison Avenue.
