Schneider Electric in Rockford Illinois (formerly Barber Coleman) is closing. The manufacturing that is currently done in Rockford, IL will be moved to existing facilities in Clovis, California, Portland, Oregon and China. Schneider Electric’s Vice President of Press Relations, Marty Hanna told local news source WIFR that the company will move all production out of its Clifford Avenue location by the time the building's lease is up in March of 2014. Currently, 400 people currently work at the Loves Park facility. Of that 400, 240 positions will be eliminated. Schneider plans to keep 160 office employees in the Rockford area. They will look for a new location before the lease expires in March of 2014.
