After operating for many years in Jackson, the Armstrong Flooring plant will close its doors on Friday.
On Monday, it was announced that 110 workers would be let go when the Highway 80 plant near Battlefield Park closes.
Although the company declared bankruptcy in May with the intention of preventing closures, operations in Mississippi and Oklahoma are ultimately expected to cease at the end of this week.
The Lancaster, Pennsylvania-based business agreed to sell itself for $107 million to AHF, LLC and Gordon Brothers.
Did You Know?
LLC stands for limited liability company. LLC protects the businessmen and industrialists at the time of complete loss by removing the liability of debts from the owner of the firm. In simple terms, according to LLC the owner is not responsible for financial losses and the debts are deposited by the firm and not the private funds of the owner.
According to a statement from Armstrong, “the company is working to support its employees in Jackson and Stillwater (Oklahoma) and plans to explore local employment placement opportunities.”
A former employee of Armstrong Flooring named Mark Muncie displayed an old photograph and reminisced about his time working at the facility, which was the first commercial building on Highway 80 and was constructed in 1947.
“This occurred in 1960. My father holding me at a Christmas dinner just a few months after I was born, and what I refer to as my first day of work “Muncie remarked.
Muncie expressed sympathy for the fired workers.
“This is not very good. I hope they can find employment at a respectable company like Continental (Tire) or one of the more recent establishments in Madison County “Muncie remarked.
