Kellogg's Plant In Horsham To Close, Cutting Nearly 300 Jobs

HORSHAM, PA — Kellogg's will shut down its Horsham facility, leaving nearly 300 workers without jobs, according to a WARN notice filed with the state of Pennsylvania.

The layoffs are expected to go into effect this summer, between Aug. 4 and Aug. 17.

The closure is part of a company-wide layoff of around 1,500 employees as the company streamlines its distribution process.

The Horsham facility is located on 100 Witmer Road.

WARN notices are federally mandated notifications given by companies to employees and families that a mass closing or layoff is imminent. Companies must provide families with 60 days notice of the layoff.
