Conagra Brands, the leading US food manufacturer, has announced plans to close its pie filling plant in Fennville (MI), with the potential loss of 85 jobs, according to a Just Food report.
The closure follows the shutdown of Conagra Brands’ Birds Eye frozen vegetables plant in Beaver Dam (WI), last April, which resulted in 252 workers being impacted.
Commenting on the move, a company spokesperson is quoted as saying that the decision was taken because of “the need to operate our overall operations and facility footprint as effectively and efficiently as possible”, adding that production would be transferred to another plant within the Conagra Brands system.
The facility is expected to close by the end of June this year.
