Pactiv Evergreen's Mill Closure Threatens $12M Agreement and Small Mountain Town.
North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper has warned Pactiv Evergreen that the closure of its paper mill in Wagram would be a "clear breach" of the $12m agreement the company signed with the state in 2019. The agreement was aimed at supporting the mill's operations and retaining jobs. Cooper has urged the company to reconsider its decision, which would result in the loss of 300 jobs and have a significant impact on the local economy.
