Closure of Eves Valley Sawmill would affect 142 jobsFriday 22 Aug 2025
Company management told Tim King on Thursday it planned to shut the plant near Nelson and consolidate resources at its Kawerau plant in Bay of Plenty, with the potential loss of 142 jobs. "There have been rumours around the future of this mill for some considerable time, but it still comes as a huge shock when you actually hear that it's intended to close. The implications are very significant for us as a region," he said. "I've grown up with this site, I lived here before the mill was built, I watched it being built, I've lived next to it for most of my life. I can certainly understand how difficult it is for those people who have worked here, many of them have worked here for a very long time as well." More >> Source: RNZ | ||
