A LOCAL COMPANY THAT MAKES PARACHUTES MAY BE GETTING READY TO BAIL OUT OF BELLEVILLE.
PUBLISHED REPORTS SAY “AIRBORNE SYSTEMS CANADA” PLANS TO CLOSE ITS WILSON AVENUE PLANT AT THE END OF AUGUST — THROWING ABOUT 30 PEOPLE OUT OF WORK.
COMPANY OFFICIALS HAVE NOT CONFIRMED THE REPORT, AND BELLEVILLE’S MAYOR IS ALSO LOOKING INTO IT.
THE COMPANY WAS IN THE HEADLINES A YEAR AGO — AFTER LANDING A 3.6 MILLION DOLLAR CONTRACT TO SUPPLY 600 PARACHUTES AND SPARE COMPONENTS FOR THE MILITARY.
THERE’S UNCONFIRMED WORD THAT THE PLANT’S NEW OWNER, TRANS-DIGM GROUP, INTENDS TO MOVE THE BELLEVILLE PRODUCTION TO THE UNITED STATES.
