Vancouver, Washington-based Hawthorne Gardening Company, a subsidiary of Scotts Miracle-Gro and supplier of horticulture, organics, hydroponics, and lighting equipment and supplies, has announced that the company is transferring its manufacturing and assembly of its indoor cannabis grow operations and organic lighting products from Vancouver, Washington to a facility located in Temecula, California
The move has already impacted 150 employees, with approximately 100 employees remaining in Vancouver.
According to a company spokesperson, "It's a strategic move, consolidating all of the company's lighting manufacturing and assembly into one space — located closer to seaports and in the nation's largest cannabis market, the state of California. Unfortunately, a number of our people were impacted. That's something we can't really diminish at all. Decisions like this are never easy."
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?
