Energizer Moving VT Battery Manufacturing Facility to Former Rayovac Plant
BENNINGTON, VT—Battery company Energizer says it is closing a manufacturing facility in Vermont at the beginning of 2021 and moving it to a plant in Portage, WI, that was previously owned by Rayovac but purchased by Energizer from Spectrum Brands early last year.
This announce was made in a two-paragraph note sent late last month to local officials, according to Marcus Boolish, Energizer Brands director of government affairs. The Portage plant has been operating for about 50 years.
