Around 175 employees at the Schneider Foods poultry processing plant in Ayr found out they'll be out of a job. Tuesday afternoon, Maple Leaf Foods announced that the plant would be closing and work from the Ayr facility would be moved to locations in Mississauga and Brantford. Maple Leaf suggested 75 jobs would be added to the plant in Mississauga, however the Brantford location had sufficient staff to support the added workload they would absorb. The plant, originally built in 1969, will close its doors for good on May 18th.
