LSC Communications closing facility in Minnesota

LONG PRAIRIE, Minn. (From news reports) -- Printing company LSC Communications, a Chicago-based spinoff of Fortune 500 company R.R. Donnelley & Sons Co., is closing its plant in Long Prairie, Minn., resulting in the layoff of 236 workers there, according to a notice filed with the state of Minnesota.

Long Prairie, about two hours northwest of the Twin Cities, had a population of roughly 3,500 in 2016. The plant, at 100 Banta Road, sits on a 4.6-acre parcel and has an assessed value of $3.68 million for tax purposes, according to Todd County property documents.

LSC Communications said it will commence laying off the workers in March. Positions affected by the plant closure include press operators, technicians, mechanics, maintenance workers and several managerial positions.

In January of 2017, LSC Communications closed a plant in Tennessee that impacted about 144 employees.
