Panama City News Herald printing plant to close; no changes to services or delivery
PANAMA CITY — Three years after The News Herald’s printing plant was rebuilt following the destruction from one of the strongest hurricanes to hit the United States, company consolidation is forcing its closure.
The newspaper’s parent company, Gannett, announced Thursday that all of The News Herald’s printing and packaging products will be moved from its building at 501 W. 11th St. in Panama City to sister facilities in Gainesville and Jackson, Miss. The printing press is set to cease operations in mid-January.
