A Minnesota lettuce producer has once more pushed back the shutdown of its Owatonna facility. The company is pursuing a transaction that could potentially keep the operation running. This latest postponement means the 89 layoffs are now expected between November 6 and November 20. The exact nature of the transaction remains unclear. The company previously cited consumer demand uncertainty following a foodborne illness outbreak as a contributing factor to its financial challenges.
