Stryker to Shutter South Carolina Plant
Stryker (NYSE:SYK) is reportedly planning to close a plant in Charleston, S.C., that it acquired when it bought Berchtold Holding last year.
Kalamazoo, Mich.-based Stryker plans to shutter the plant by the end of the year, according to the Charleston Post and Courier. Stryker paid $172 million in April 2014 for Berchtold, which makes surgical tables, lighting systems and other operating room and ICU equipment.
Stryker is planning to absorb the operation, which employed about 115 workers in 2012, into its manufacturing network but declined to offer details.
