Today the Red Mill Snack Food Company, which is owned by Tayto Group, revealed all 300 jobs at the Wednesbury plant will go and production is moving to a plant in Corby, Northamptonshire.
Production will continue until at least February, when there will be a phased movement of machinery and production over the next 18 months.
The decision follows a three months review, accelerated when a lucrative Pringles Minis contract at the sister plant in Corby was cancelled
