Finch Paper lays off 44 employees
The Business Review (Albany)

Finch Paper LLC, a paper mill in Glens Falls, has laid off 44 workers over the past two weeks in response to a souring economy.

Finch Paper, which makes papers used for direct mailing, marketing and catalogs, now employs 800 full-time workers in Glens Falls, its headquarters.

Customers of the privately held company have decreased orders, leading the company to cut production and staff, said company spokesman John Brodt Jr.

“Most definitely, this is market driven,” Brodt said. “There’s a slump in paper demand across the country, and we’re certainly not immune from that.”

Brodt described the layoffs as temporary, and added that Finch Paper would make further cuts, or hires, based on the rise and fall of orders.

“I can’t speculate on what we may or may not have to do down the road, but our production is completely driven by the volume of paper orders coming in each day,” said Brodt, of Behan Communications Inc.

Brodt declined to discuss annual sales at the company, and he declined to say how much production has been cut at the plant.
