Smith Corona to lay off 300 at Cortland plant
Smith Corona announced 300 layoffs at its Cortland typewriter plant starting March 7 with production of manual typewriters ending in May. Officials blamed weak demand for electric portables and Japanese competition while noting the decision follows a miss on a New York City Board of Education contract. The move would lift Cortland County unemployment from 11.6 to about 13.0 percent and reduce the plant workforce to roughly 2,950 across SCM Corp. subsidiaries.
