FRANKLIN—International Paper Co. will move 35 customer service employees to an office park in Suffolk, rather than to the fourth floor of the Franklin Business Incubator.

Franklin IP Communications Manager Desmond Stills said employees would be moving by June 1 to offices at 1069 Centerbrooke Lane, which is in the Commons at Centerbrooke north of the Suffolk Bypass at Virginia Route 10, Godwin Boulevard.
