The plan will result in the closure of two biscuit facilities located in Elizabeth, New Jersey and Richmond, Virginia over the next twelve to eighteen months. Employment at both facilities will be phased down as the majority of the production is relocated to a new facility in Virginia and an existing Interbake facility already operating in South Dakota.
Once completed, this initiative is anticipated to result in lowering annual manufacturing costs and strengthening Weston’s competitive position within its biscuit operations in the United States.
