JACKSON, MI -- Sparton Corp. will close its Albuquerque, NM, facility by Sept. 30, succumbing to the business climate, offshore competition and volatile market demand.

The 110,000 sq. ft. plant builds assemblies for customers in the industrial markets.

In a press release, Sparton said it has had difficulty obtaining sufficient sales to support operations at the site. The company hopes to move existing customer programs to other Sparton locations, and does not anticipate interruptions shipments.

The facility, located on the West Side of the city, was formerly used by Honeywell.

The company did not disclose how many workers would be affected.
