AM I NEXT? NO LOVE AT GOLDEN PEANUT & TREE NUTS

Am I Next? Golden Peanut & Tree Nuts closing facility.

Alpharetta, Georgia-based Golden Peanut and Tree Nuts, a global supplier of peanuts, peanut-derived ingredients, nut butters, tree nuts, pecans and pecan-derived ingredients, seeds, grains, and dried fruits, has announced that the company will be permanently closing its processing and distribution center located in El Paso, Texas.

The closure will affect approximately 86 employees at the facility which processes pecans and has a shelling plant, two cold storage warehouses and a packaging and distribution warehouse.

It is unknown how the closure will affect local growers who supply their raw nuts to the company under contract.

Change is coming. There will always be a tomorrow, no matter how much you may try to ignore it. There are no guarantees in life or promises for a bright future. Just because something bad hasn't happened yet, doesn't mean it won't. It can happen to anyone, anytime, anywhere. No one is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow and still have a job by evening. Are you now wondering, Am I Next?
