Celebrate Express: This cataloger of party products plans to consolidate its customer service and print manufacturing operations into its Greensboro, N.C. location. Approximately 48 employees at its Kirkland, Wash., facility will be laid off. The total one-time cost of the consolidation will be $250,000 to $300,000. The annualized benefits are projected at approximately twice the one-time costs. By July, Celebrate Express will have vacated the Kirkland building, says CEO Kevin Green.
