(Kron) – One of the largest wholesalers in the country cuts hundreds of jobs in the Gulf region and through the state as part of a step to stop its operations in California completely. The National Distribution Company of the Republic will drop 1756 people throughout the state, according to the Ministry of Employment Development.
At the local level, the company will cut 156 jobs in the province of Santa Clara and 330 jobs in the province of Islama. Most job discounts, 878, will be in Orange County.
The company cuts 136 additional jobs in Yulo Province, 80 jobs in San Diego County, and 176 jobs in Los Angeles Province.
All functional cuts are described as permanent.
In June, the CEO of the company, Bob Hinderson, announced that the National Distribution Company for the Republic will close its operations in California, starting from September 2.
“We have made a difficult decision to withdraw from California, which affects many roles in the state,” Hendrickson said in a statement. “We comply with all regulatory obligations, and we need to deal with every careful and smooth transition process and ensure that each person treats fairness and respect.”
The functional cuts in the Gulf region will affect the workers in Hayyuard, Blezanton and Morgan Hill.
