YORK, Pennsylvania (From the York Daily Record) -- Quad/Graphics will close its plant in Manchester Township by Feb. 1, a company spokeswoman said late Thursday.

The plant's 186 employees will be offered positions with other Quad/Graphics plants around the country, said Claire Ho, a spokeswoman for the company, which is based in Sussex, Wisconsin.

The company is consolidating the work done in Manchester Township at its facility in Westampton, New Jersey.

Workers who choose not to transfer to another Quad/Graphics location will be offered a separation package that includes health care benefits, Ho said.

The company is planning on holding a career fair to inform employees about openings at its other locations, she said.
