Bittersweet deal in Revere: NECCO plant sold

By adamg on Fri, 05/05/2017 - 9:54am

The Revere Journal reports NECCO has sold its Revere facility to a couple of out-of-town companies. That's good news for the city, to which NECCO hasn't been paying taxes of late, but raises questions about what happens to the Skybar maker, which moved to Revere in 2003 from Cambridge.

I could do without the peppermint & licorice wafers in the roll.

Only the building was sold, not NECCO itself.

A little history: The building first housed the former Towle Manufacturing (the silversmiths). The Towle brand, is now owned by another company.
