Norcross, Ga.-based Rock-Tenn Co. will close its 125-em- ployee Baltimore folding carton plant at the end of the month. Production will move to four of its other plants in the South- east and in Canada. The company cites slumping sales and increased costs as the reasons for the closure, graphicartsonline. com reports. New World Pasta and Hershey's Chocolate are among the plant's largest customers. It generated an estimated $25 million in sales for the fiscal year.
