Dunkin' franchisee closes down production plant, lays off 74 employees
"A Dunkin' franchisee is shutting down a Haverhill production facility and laying off 74 workers, according to a recent state filing. NGP Management, based in North Reading, stated in a Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notice filed on Sept. 2 that it will eliminate the jobs in early November. In a letter to the state, the company's director of human resources said the "entire facility" at 15 Parkridge Road, in Haverhill, is closing permanently."
"According to NGP Management's website, the family-owned franchisee, also known as the Scrivanos Network, was founded in 1980 with a single Dunkin' location in Haverhill and has grown to operate over 100 Dunkin' locations across Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Vermont. NGP Management did not immediately respond to a request for comment. However, another production facility is opening in the city by the end of this year."
NGP Management, a family-owned Dunkin' franchisee based in North Reading, will permanently close its production facility at 15 Parkridge Road in Haverhill and eliminate 74 jobs in early November. The layoffs will affect 45 production workers, 21 drivers, logistic supervisors, sanitation workers, managers, and a baker; employees are not unionized. Layoffs are scheduled to begin Nov. 3 and continue for two weeks. The company operates over 100 Dunkin' locations across four states. NGP Management did not respond to comment.
