Bevolution to lay off 48 at LI facility, files WARN notice

The Huntington Station facility of a Chicago-based company that makes shelf-stable and frozen beverage products and cocktail mixes will close in December, according to a state regulatory filing.

The WARN filing, posted on the state Labor Department’s website on Friday, says that 48 employees of Bevolution Group will be affected.

The company declined to comment.

The notice attributes the closing to a “consolidation of production processes.”

Layoffs are scheduled for Nov. 18, followed by the plant’s closing on Dec. 30, the notice says.

Under the state Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, companies with at least 50 full-time employees in New York must give workers a 90-day notice of a mass layoff or closing.
