The longtime Phillips- Van Heusen warehouse and distribution center in Chattanooga plans to shut down next month and lay off 85 workers.
PVH Corp., the clothing conglomerate better known as Phillips-Van Heusen, has told the Tennessee Department of Labor and Workforce Development that it will close the 3915 Volunteer Drive facility in July.
“PVH Corp. has filed an official WARN Notice notifying the agency of a permanent closure which is effective July 14,” the department reported.
A manager at the facility, located off Bonny Oaks Drive near Highway 153, declined to comment, referring calls to the company’s New York City headquarters. It also did not answer questions about the planned closing.
The company, which makes and sells the Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger, Van Heusen and IZOD brands among others, owns the Chattanooga facility that was built in 1964, according to the Hamilton County Assessor of Property’s office.
