UBE Buyer
Sarnia Mayor Mike Bradley says the news couldn’t be better. Blackburn Radio News has learned a Canadian owned company has purchased the 74 acre UBE Automotive site on highway 402. The sale includes the land, building and a majority of the wheel factory’s assets. UBE Plant Manager Rob McPherson, while not divulging the buyer’s name, says the new automotive-related business plans to start hiring in the first quarter of next year. It’s hoped 300 people will be on the payroll in one to three years, matching UBE’s peak employment levels.
