“The closure has been prompted by the loss of the agreement to distribute goods for Phoenix International Publications, which is handled at this location,” wrote Dawn Leibly, a Publications International representative, in a letter notifying the Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development.

The three facilities that will close are located in an industrial park four miles southeast of Yorkville: 1333 Grandview Parkway, 1221 Grandview Parkway and 1515 Grandview Parkway. A fourth facility operated by Publications International in that same industrial park, at 1101 Sylvania Ave., will remain open.

Leibly said the company will eliminate the positions in phases from April 1 to June 30.
