DFA to Close Plymouth Dairy Plant
Wisconsin Ag Connection - 10/05/2015

Dairy Farmers of America has announced plans to close its Plymouth cheese plant early next year.

CEO John Stephens said Friday that despite numerous upgrades to the facility, the plant is aging and its dated infrastructure and technology is making it difficult to justify keeping the location open for business.

The move means nearly 300 people will be out of work by January. DFA plans to explore setting up a job fair to identify other local employment opportunities for displayed workers.

The Plymouth manufacturing facility has been in operation since 1954. It produces Borden Cheese and other private-label cheese products. Production will continue through mid-December.
