Farley’s & Sathers is closing some of its confectionery operations in Chattanooga in the wake of its recent merger with Chicago-based Ferrara Pan.
Farley’s & Sathers’ packaging and distribution functions in Chattanooga will be consolidated into existing facilities within the new network, according to Ferrara Candy Co., the name of the combined business.
As a result, the Cummings Road facility in Chattanooga will be closed this fall, as will Sathers Trucking Co. in the city, the company said in a statement. Its Jersey Pike operation in Chattanooga is slated to remain open.
The number of workers impacted by the closings is expected to be less than 200.
