racinfarmer Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Looks like 250+ people will be looking for work once they close this ATV/UTV location. I think they were also doing parts of the Slingshot there too. That sucks no matter the company. http://kstp.com/business/polaris-industries-closes-nw-iowa-plant-leaving-300-employees-out-of-work/4463381/?cat=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SVT MXZ XRS Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 This closure has an impact on one of our own members, but he said he will be able to go to another plant close to there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like virtually all small Iowa towns there are some others within a short distance as well as the rural population. Lots of farmers work factory jobs to get HCI. Either way it will be a huge hit financially for that area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
