robertocarter+FollowDetroit’s PepsiCo plant shake-up: What’s next?Big changes are coming to Detroit’s east side as PepsiCo plans to lay off 83 workers and shut down much of its Mack Avenue manufacturing facility this fall. While warehouse and delivery teams will stay, the move is a clear sign of how even major brands are feeling the pressure to adapt as more people reach for healthier drinks. PepsiCo’s latest bet? Investing nearly $2 billion in probiotic sodas and prepping a new prebiotic Pepsi for health-focused shoppers. For Detroiters, this shift could mean new job opportunities in other roles—but also a ripple effect for local logistics and transport businesses.

Kim Reeves+FollowPepsi plant changes shake up Detroit jobsPepsiCo is shutting down manufacturing at its Detroit Mack Avenue plant, and that means 84 people—mostly operations techs—will lose their jobs this fall.

Have you or someone you know ever faced a similar situation? Let’s talk about what this means for Detroit. #Business #EntrepreneurshipStartup #DetroitJobs00Share

Robert Evans+FollowAnother Round of Auto Layoffs Hits DetroitHeads up if you’re in the auto biz or just love your sunroof: Webasto, the company behind many car roofs (think Ford Bronco tops), is laying off 134 folks at its New Hudson plant. Why? Fewer cars rolling off the line means less need for roofs, so they’re moving work to another location. If you’re job-hunting or know someone in auto, it’s a reminder to keep your resume ready—this isn’t the first round of cuts, and probably not the last. #Business #EntrepreneurshipStartup #DetroitJobs00Share
