It's a shame about Norcold handing out layoffs before xmas, leaving the US. Seems the whole industry is in disarray.

    Indeed, never good to see manufacturing jobs move off-shore.

     . . .  All 358 received 60-day “WARN” notices, required when a company plans on layoffs. Thetford’s official statement says, “The decision to close the Norcold locations and utilize the company’s global manufacturing capabilities was difficult, but necessary due to the current economic challenges and ongoing labor constraints.”  . . .

    Thetford is owned by Monomoy Capital Partners since December 2021.  It appears to be a venture capital fund.
