Milwaukee, Wisconsin-based Saputo Cheese USA, a manufacturer and distributor of dairy products, has announced the intended closure
of its Suamico, Wisconsin, manufacturing plant, to occur by the end of December 2025, in an effort to consolidate and modernize operations.
Operations will be transferred to the company's packaging and distribution facility in Franklin, Wisconsin.
The closure will impact 240 workers in phased layoffs that will take place between November 1, 2025, and the end of December 2025.
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, nor promises of a bright future. We see good people being laid off through no fault of their own. Just because something terrible hasn't happened yet doesn't mean it won't. It can happen to anyone, at any time, anywhere. No one is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow and still have a job by evening. While many employees can read the writing on the wall, why do most assume it’s targeted at someone else? Are you now wondering, Am I Next?
