ITG Brands announces closure of Reidsville cigarette plant

ITG Brands announces closure of Reidsville cigarette plant 2018
Reidsville
ITG Brands announced in 2018 that it would close its Reidsville cigarette factory and move production to Greensboro, eliminating about 110 jobs by early 2020.
American Tobacco bought a Reidsville plant in 1911, and cigarette production was later concentrated there. Production was to move to ITG's plant in Greensboro, which had been Lorillard's. WFDD reported in October 2019 that production would soon end, with most layoffs by the end of 2019 and the last by the end of February 2020.
