Andersen to Cut 250 Minnesota Jobs

Bayport, Minnesota’s Andersen is cutting 250 management and office staff positions.

More than half the cuts target the corporate headquarters. Some of the jobs will be vacated through an early-retirement program, and others are already vacant.

Andersen also closed its plant in Fall River, Massachusetts, putting 287 workers on the street.

Andersen Corporation is a major manufacturer of windows. The company was founded in 1903 by Danish immigrant Hans Andersen and his family in Hudson, Wisconsin. Andersen first began mass producing back in 1904, nine years before Henry Ford put the automobile on an assembly line.

Today the company is headquartered in Bayport, Minnesota, and employs more than 14,000 people in locations across North America. It has 16 manufacturing facilities, and manufactures more than 12 million windows and doors.
