TC Transcontinental to Close Owen Sound Printing Plant

The decision stems from a broader push to optimize the company's integrated national printing network. Management is currently balancing the stabilization of its traditional printing division against a strategic pivot toward in-store marketing and educational publishing segments. Once the Owen Sound doors close, the company’s Ontario-based workforce will account for roughly 40% of its total staff. This transition reflects the ongoing consolidation efforts within the firm's manufacturing footprint as it shifts resources toward higher-growth areas of its business portfolio.
