Concert/festival construction contractor, Mountain Productions, and area COVID-19 rapid testing company, 15toknow, are working to stand up a mass coronavirus vaccination site in King of Prussia. Mountain Productions builds stages and structures for big outdoor concerts and events including Firefly, Musicfest, the NFL Draft, and the Mann. Already started work in KOP, they have built two large arches to act as drive-thru lanes and a series of smaller buildings for staff, equipment, and storing vaccine. The concert and event industry has been hit hard in the past year forcing companies to pivot and find other outlets for their expertise. 15toknow will handle the vaccine distribution.
