Abbey Press to Shutter its Catalog Division

Abbey Press’ final consumer catalog will mail this fall. This week, nine Abbey Press co-workers involved in the catalog production were notified that they were being laid off. By the end of the year, about 25 employees will be laid off as the catalog’s last orders are filled and shipped.

“It’s difficult to close this division of Abbey Press,” said Wilson, “but it’s even harder to lay off dedicated, hard-working co-workers who have done nothing but work to make the catalog successful.”
