Electrolux Firing or Shooting or Stoning or Moving All North American Corporate Office Staff
Obviously there is some interest among the Electrolux corporate staff to know which list the individual ends up on. Who can blame them?
Electrolux announced that all of their far flung offices located where they are as a result of decades of acquisitions, will be consolidated into a central location, as yet undecided. The moves to this location starts summer 2010.
"Electrolux is consolidating its international sales office in Pittsburgh, American sales office in Huntersville, N.C., the holding company office in Cleveland, financial support offices in Columbus, Ohio, and Springfield, Tenn., and a design center in Anderson, S.C."
Reported the Augusta Chronicle.

NC Governor Bev Perdue will be on hand today at 11AM at the Charlotte Chamber of Commerce meeting for a "significant economic development" announcement. The scuttlebutt is that this is at least part of that announcement.
