Comments about ‘Springville company moving to Wisconsin’

Like I would want to take a job if I knew it was being transitioned out of state - NOT!!!

Will they please take their ugly building with them?

A lot of good Orrin Hatch has done in protecting the Natures Way companies form regulation . We lose the jobs anyway.

If I was unemployed and hungry, I would certainly take a job that I knew was being transitioned out of state. Temp work is better than going hungry.

It seems like more than ever before, Utah-based companies are leaving the state in droves, in search of greener pastures. Can't you see the implications?

Novel left Provo for Boston, Iomega left Roy for San Diego, Omniture gets bought out by Adobe in San Jose, and now Nature's Way is getting its way and relocating to Wisconsin.

What's next for Utah? The Jazz relocating back to New Orleans where they belong?

You've brightened a bleak day by suggesting the Jazz might move out of Utah.

I have to wonder why companies are vacating Utah.

Going out on a limb here and put some blame on harassment from local government and Tony Yapis to force these companies to employ illegal aliens and creating problems with the IRS. Not to mention the language barrier with illegals. With Utah's cheap illegal labor and problems associated with it is not enough to keep them here.

Companies want to employ americans but Tony Yapis and his associates is putting his nose in business decisions and force illegal foreign nationals from mexico on the payrolls.

America doesn't need these illegals and if you go outside this state you never see an illegal working and americans are all with jobs. Utah is not such a great place anymore because of the illegals hiding here that are looting Utah of jobs and services.

I lived for 3 blizzards in Green Bay, once. It was cold in the winter, but the summers were beautiful. The football mania is wonderful. The people were fine. And the restaurants were mmmmm good.

Moving to GB is a good move for the company. Springville compared to upper Wisconsin? Please... think Door County.

You go company, you go.

And as to the Jazz leaving Utah? What a hurt that would cause our economy. whoa!!

Know your feelings when firms re-locate or close down.

Michigan has been going through this for years....now

The back story to this is the slow monopolization of the health supplement industry by Big Pharma buying up such companies and then using the FDA (Food and Drug Administration)to shut down the small independents. Schwabe North America is owned by a German Pharmaceutical company.

It's already been reported that the FDA has been attempting for years to regulate (read: shut down) the alternative health and supplement industry.

There's big money in the pharmaceutical industry. Once the FDA has destroyed the alternative health industry Big Pharma will be able to charge you $10 a tablet for vitamin C that is only produced by them and available to you only by prescription. Any natural cures and treatments will also be dolled out for mega-bucks, or conversely banned and buried for Big Pharma's own products.

It's always about Control and Money.

LOL, Hatch and Bennett can't even keep worker's there in Utah, let alone a Company, they would rather be a cheese-head Green Bay Packer fan, and be without afirmative action and quota's in the work place, then, live in that waste-land called Utah.

More than 2 million workers have lost their jobs in manufacturing since the recession began in December 2007, and many of those jobs are not expected to return even as the economy recovers. That is a big concern for all Americans, but the disappearance of so many solid working-class jobs with benefits could be especially (Utah's sock-puppet monkey), devastating to black workers. Manufacturing jobs have historically been an important path to the middle class for black families, but blacks have been losing those jobs at a faster clip than other workers in recent years, according to the Center for Economic and Policy Research, a left-leaning think tank. While black workers were as likely as other workers to hold manufacturing jobs between the late 1970s and the early 1990s, by 2007, blacks were about 15 percent less likely to have a job in manufacturing in Utah today.

@so much for tax incentives:

Wow.

So let me get this straight. Natures Way is leaving for Green Bay because the city leaders of Springville and Tony Yapias (thats how you really spell his name, by the way), went to them and forced them to hire illegal aliens?

Ummm, okaaaayy.

I know you made the disclaimer that you were "going out on a limb"... but that isn't even a twig. A twig that was handed to you by Elvis in a UFO, I think.

It's cold out. Don't forget your tinfoil hat.

Bro Chuck is always right.

LOL +1 - what does hiring "illegals" have to do with a snake-oil company leaving Utah? Yes I do see the irony in all of this.

As a employee of Natures Way I can say that most of us will miss working for the company, and up to this point it has been a great company to work for. I know I will miss my fellow co-workers they made the company what it is.

Jonthan - that's the Neways building not Nature's Way. Get your facts straight before you post...duh!

I was hired onto the staff at Nature's Way this past year. Throughout the hiring process I was asked to present several forms of identification including my social security card, driver's license and complete a background check. I can assure you that Nature's Way hires no illegal immigrants. In fact, you must be able to communicate in English to work here. I love my job and the people that work here. I have never in my life been treated with such respect and care as an employee by an employer. Their jobs and presence in Utah County will be missed. Even if we are just another "snake oil" company, it put food on my table and I will always be thankful for that.
