Cherry Hill, New Jersey-based National Distribution Centers, doing business as NFI, a fully-integrated provider of transportation, logistics, and warehousing services, has announced a cessation of warehouse operations at the Hanesbrands High Point, North Carolina facility.
The operational change will impact 217 jobs with layoffs commencing December 27, 2023.
NDC's client, Hanesbrands, noted that its agreement with NDC for facility OPERATIONS expires at the end of the year and is not being renewed, and Hanesbrands is not closing the facility. Hanesbrands is being pressured by an activist investor to cut costs, divest underperforming assets, and to increase profits.
Change is coming. There will always be a tomorrow, no matter how much you may try to ignore it. There are no guarantees in life or promises for a bright future. We see good people being laid off through no fault of their own. Just because something bad hasn't happened yet, doesn't mean it won't. It can happen to anyone, anytime, anywhere. No one is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow and still have a job by evening. Are you now wondering, Am I Next?
