Orchard House Foods wants to relocate production from Gateshead to its base in Northamptonshire.
Hundreds of jobs are set to be axed at a North East factory which supplies supermarkets with fruit and juices.
Orchard House Foods blamed rising costs and a shortage of staff for its decision to shut its site in Gateshead. The business, which supplies the likes of Marks & Spencer, Tesco and Pret A Manger, plans to relocate production to its base at Corby, Northamptonshire. It has started a consultation over the 430 jobs at risk of redundancy and wants to move by the end of November.
A "significant number of jobs" will be created at Corby, with support for colleagues from Gateshead who wish to relocate, it said.Elaghmore purchased Orchard House for about £25mChief executive Steve Corby said: "Despite making significant investments in our Gateshead facility over a considerable period in an effort to turn around its financial performance, it is unfortunately still making losses that make it unsustainable over the long term.
