They're not leaving Buffalo until the Koch's decide to sell to Nike or Under Armor. That won't be for a while, so relax... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RocCityRoller Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 According to WGRZ, New Era is closing the Derby plant according to this news article. Also according to the article the downtown Buffalo Head Quarters is staying put.

Author: WGRZ Staff Published: 11:57 AM EST January 26, 2019 Updated: 1:58 PM EST January 26, 2019 ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — Local politicians, labor union representatives, and others gathered outside One Bills Drive on Saturday to protest New Era's decision to close its manufacturing plant in Derby. The group demanded that company CEO Chris Koch change the company's decision to end production operations in Western New York in March. Hundreds of workers will lose their jobs. In an average year, New Era was making about 2 million caps at its Derby plant, which has been in operation since the 1960s. RELATED: New details on closing of New Era's Derby plant RELATED: Rally to keep New Era jobs in WNY New Era employs more than 300 workers at its downtown Buffalo headquarters, which the company says will not be affected by the plant shutdown. Shortly after the announcement of the impending closure, Koch said the move was to help ensure the long term success of the company. New Era owns and operates the Derby facility, and the company says it's no longer viable in today's global economy to own a plant to make the caps.

We agree. My post was focused on sharing the whole story instead of spreading half truths like the OP to get a rise out of people.
