New owner soon at Erie Plastics

The Erie, Pa., Times-News is reporting that Erie Plastics Corp. may have a new owner soon.

The company is in discussions with Ed Crawford, chairman and chief executive officer of Park Ohio Corp., according to the story. Hoop Roche told the newspaper that the sale "hinges on the willingness of the company's union employees to make certain concessions. Employees will vote on those changes Monday.

The company laid off 192 of its 359 workers in March, when Procter & Gamble Co. withdrew business.
