B&H Photo to Move 2 Brooklyn Warehouses and 335 Jobs to New Jersey
By Gwynne Hogan, BROOKLYN — Midtown electronics and photography hub B&H Photo will shut down its Bushwick and Navy Yard warehouses, opting to consolidate operations at one massive warehouse in New Jersey, marking the end 17 years of work in the borough, the company said. The move, announced Thursday and slated to take place in the second half of 2017, has blindsided union representatives, who were still in the process of negotiating a contract for roughly 300 B+H warehouse employees, they said. In total, New York city will lose 335 jobs spread between the two locations. Company executives said they’d tried for several years to find another location in New York City, but blamed their inability to do so on its hot real estate market. dnainfo.com/new-york
