Morton Metalcraft said that it will close a facility at 2080 E. Williams St. in Apex by Oct. 30. Morton will layoff 95 workers because of the move.
Morton is a metal fabricator with customers that include Deere & Co., Caterpillar and Kubota Manufacturing.
“Earlier this year, Morton Metalcraft Co. began experiencing dramatic reductions in sales volumes,” Lydia Walton, human resources manager, wrote in a letter to Commerce. “The company continued to lose volume at the Apex location and now it is with regret that I must report to you that the company has decided to permanently close its entire facility.”
