Tyson Foods Inc. says it's closing three U.S. plants, employing a total
950 workers, which have struggled financially as the company's product
needs have changed.
Tyson, the biggest U.S. meat processor, announced Friday the planned
closures of the plants in Cherokee, Iowa; Buffalo, New York; and Santa
Teresa, New Mexico. The company said the action will enable it to move
some of the operations and equipment at the plants to other, more
cost-efficient Tyson plants.
The Cherokee plan will close Sept. 27, and the Buffalo and Santa Teresa
plants are expected to shut down in the first half of 2015.
