Over 700 lose jobs as Lehigh County's warehouse closes.

United Natural Foods Inc. is closing its Lehigh County, PA warehouse, resulting in 716 job losses for workers, drivers, and support staff. The closure follows the end of a major contract with Key Food, forcing UNFI to shift operations elsewhere. This decision impacts not only employees but also local families, businesses, and tax revenue, highlighting the instability of warehouse jobs in today’s economy. The situation serves as a warning that even large, seemingly stable logistics hubs can quickly disappear, leaving communities and workers facing sudden uncertainty and economic disruption.
