Snack manufacturing plant cuts nearly 100 jobs in Alabama
A snack manufacturing company is laying off workers at one of its Alabama locations, resulting in the loss of just under 100 jobs. Flagstone Foods, a Minneapolis-based company that manufactures private label snack nuts, culinary nuts, trail mixes and other nut-based snacks, announced plans to cut jobs at its Dothan facility through a Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification, or WARN, notice filed Aug. 4, according to the Alabama Department of Workforce website.

The law generally requires a 60-day notice to help workers prepare for the loss of employment. The Dothan location has been in business since 1985. The company is one of the largest manufacturers and distributors of private label snacks in North America, not only producing private label snacks but also ingredients for commercial use, contract manufacturing services to branded food companies, and other market research-related services such as consumer insight and global sourcing. The Dothan location specifically focuses on peanut blanching, as well as peanut and tree nut roasting. More: AL unemployment reaches highest rate since 2021, data shows The company
