Bridgestone to close LaVergne tire plant in Tennessee

Bridgestone Americas will shutter its LaVergne truck and bus radial tire plant in Tennessee, laying off about 700 workers to optimize its business footprint. The reductions affect Des Moines agriculture tire operations and corporate staff, with further cuts planned in Argentina and Brazil. Spokesperson Emily Weaver said the realignment aims to respond to a weak economy, noting 4 percent of roughly 44,000 North and Latin American teammates are leaving.
