CINCINNATI - Following a $22 million incentives package that helped lure Chiquita Brands International, Inc. corporate headquarters from downtown Cincinnati, 9 News has learned how many people in Greater Cincinnati may be without jobs.
At least 200 Chiquita employees may lose their job due to not relocating to Charlotte, N.C., or having their job eliminated as a result of the relocation.
Chiquita made the announcement of the move back in November of last year. According to the Associated Press, the jobs moving to Charlotte are supposed to pay an average of about $107,000.
The move is expected to be complete by the end of the year.
