Fort Wayne Foundry Closing Plant; Lays Off 157
By Erik Even | Dated: 03-03-2009
Fort Wayne Foundry plans to close its production plant in Fort Wayne, Indiana in June, eliminating 157 hourly positions.
The company said today it will conduct a “mass layoff” in June at its Fort Wayne machining division, which had about 150 employees in mid-2007. The company, however, did not say how many jobs would be affected.
The company makes aluminum engine parts and says the cuts are due to the downturn in the automotive industry.
The company operates two plants in Fort Wayne and one in nearby Columbia City.
