Crayola LLC plans to move its main distribution center from the Harrisburg area to Bethlehem for easier coordination with its Lehigh Valley manufacturing headquarters, company officials announced today.

Construction of an 800,000-square-foot warehouse along Route 412 in the Majestic Bethlehem Center is slated to start next month with completion by December and full operation by next March, company and city officials said.

Crayola projects employing between 60 and 80 people at the facility. Based in Forks Township, the company will be the first tenant in the Majestic Bethlehem Center planned on 440-plus acres between Route 412 and Applebutter Road in Bethlehem.
