The household cleaning product company, McBride, is about to close its Windermere Avenue, Burnley, Lancashire facility with the loss of 200 jobs.
[img]http://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/resources/images/1719214/?type=display[/img]MCBRIDE is planning to close its Burnley site with the loss of 200 jobs, it has been announced.
Management at the firm, which makes and distributes household cleaning products, said the Windermere Avenue factory was likely to shut in March next year.
McBride has 20 factories across 11 countries, but the Burnley site has been earmarked for closure because it offers no scope for expansion and could not absorb other sites, bosses said.
The decision comes just days after the company announced it had been carrying out a strategic review of the business.
Chief Executive Officer Chris Bull said the proposals had been influenced by factors including the ‘challenging’ economic climate and trading environment.
