Lenoir, N.C. —
Full-line resource Broyhill Furniture Inds. will close its dining chair assembly and finishing plant in Conover, N.C., in early April.
Operations at the 316,542-square-foot facility, built in 1941 and employing 106 people, will be transferred to other Broyhill plants. Some Conover employees also may transfer.
President and CEO Dennis Burgette said in a release, "For Broyhill to remain a strong and viable employer in North Carolina, we must adapt our domestic manufacturing production to remain efficient.
