Manitowoc Cranes has laid off 250 employees at its Shady Grove plant – 235 hourly paid and 25 salaried. No recall date has been set, suggesting that they are likely to be permanent headcount reductions.
The company says that the cuts are due to softer demand for the products built at the Grove plant, which includes National Crane boom trucks, Grove Rough Terrain cranes, North American truck cranes and industrial carry deck cranes.
Keep buying chinese cranes yet you cant buy a Cuban cigar???? Soon walmart will own Grove…enough!
