Heads up: Russell Stover layoffs at Colorado plant


Layoffs coming

About 150 of the 480 employees at the Russell Stover Candies plant in Montrose, Colo., will lose their jobs around April 1 when the factory’s 3-11 p.m. shift is eliminated. Russell Stover said the rising cost of raw materials and the company’s need to cut costs to remain competitive led to the layoffs.
