NORTH MANCHESTER, Ind. (WISH) — A manufacturer of truck trailers will close its production facility near North Manchester, according to a notice filed with the state government.
The Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notice received Friday says 80 jobs will be cut beginning in November at the Novae facility, about 5 miles east of the town of North Manchester on State Road 114.
The facility is about a 40-minute drive west of Fort Wayne.
Novae has a newer Indiana manufacturing facility in the town of Markle. The Huntington County facility sits off I-69 near the U.S. 224 and State Road 116 interchange, southwest of downtown Fort Wayne.
